Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Product of two consecutive integer so this mean that x and y but y = x+1 than
x(x+1)=1332
x^2 +x -1332 =0 so bc. you get 36*37=1332 and 37x-36x=x so you can rewriting this quadratic factorized completlie
x^2 +x -1332 = 0
(x+37)(x-36)=0
x+37=0
x=-37 so the larger integer result that will be 37 ...
Hope it helps
