Let the numbers be x and x+1.
Given, x+x+1=157
or, 2x+1=157
or, 2x=158
or, x=79
So, x=79 and x+1=80
∴ 79*80=6320
Thus, their product is 6320.

Step-by-step explanation:
in the upward answer his equation is
2x+1=157
2x=158
but when 1 goes to the other side it subtract and the equation will be:
2x=157-1
2x=156
x=156/2
x=78
