Question

The product of two consecutive positive integers is 342. Represent in the above situation in the form of quadratic equation. Find the numbet also.

Answer 1

LET ONE NUMBER=a
i.e. THE OTHER NUMBER=a+2
i.e. a+(a+2)=342
i.e. 2a+2=342
i.e. 2a=340
i.e. a=340/2=170
i.e. a+2=170+2=172
i.e. THE INTEGERS ARE 170 AND 172
