Suppose 1st consecutive number is x
Then second is x+2
third x+2+2 = x+4
Fourth is x+2+2+2=x+6
Their average is 37
average = total of all four numbers/ N
37 = x+x+2+x+4+x+6/4
37*4= 4x+12
148=4x+12
148-12=4x
136 = 4x
136/4 = x
34= x
First number A = 34
Third Number C= 38
Their product = 34*38
= 1292
