Step-by-step explanation:
let the two numbers be x and x+6
x(x+6)=432
x^2+6x=432
(x+3)^2=432+9
x+3^2=441
x+3=+or - 21
x=21-3=18
x=-21-13=24
the value of x are 18 and 24

Given :-
Let the two consecutive number be 6x and 6(x+1)
Here,
The product of two consecutive number is 432.
Solution :-
Product of two consecutive number
6x ( 6x + 6) = 432
36x^2 + 36x = 432
36x^2 + 36x - 432 = 0
9x^2 + 9x - 108 = 0
Now, By Using quadratic formula ,
-b ± √b^2 -4ac / 2a
Here, a = 9 , b = 9 , c = -108
Put the required values in the formula,
-9 ± √81 - 4* 9 * -108 / 2 * 9
-9 ± √81 + 3888 /18
-9 ± √3969/ 18
-9 ± 63/18
3 , -4
We neglect -4 because roots may not be negative.
Therefore,
x = 3
So,
6x = 6* 3 = 18
6x + 6 = 18 + 6 = 24
