"The product of two consecutive integers is 23 more than seven times there[sic] sum."
I presume you meant:
The product of two consecutive integers is 23 more than seven times their sum.
Assuming you want to find the value of these two consecutive integers; a question you were apparently too lazy to ask:
Let 
represent the smaller of the two integers. Then the other one must be 
because they are consecutive.
The product of the 2 integers: 
The sum of the 2 integers: 
Seven times the sum: )
23 more than that: \ +\ 23)
Hence:
\ +\ 23)
Solve the quadratic for and then calculate
Hint: You will get two roots, but one of them will be extraneous.
