well consecutive means one after another or following each other.
\n" ); document.write( "The product of two numbers is just another way of saying two numbers multiplied together.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Does that help?\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Let x = a number
\n" ); document.write( "let x+1 = the next number\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x times by x+1 = 210
\n" ); document.write( "\"x%2Ax%2Bx+=+210\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x%5E2%2Bx=210\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28x%2B%281%2F2%29%29%5E2+-+%281%2F2%29%5E2+=+210\" (called completing the square)
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28x%2B%281%2F2%29%29%5E2+=+210%2B1%2F4\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x+=+sqrt+%28210%2B1%2F4%29+-+1%2F2+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x+=+14\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so the two numbers are 14 and 15. Check the answer by multiply both together to give 210.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Do you understand it?
\n" ); document.write( " \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
