4th root of 255024 is about 22.47
\n" ); document.write( "so 22 or 23 or both are factors
\n" ); document.write( "255024/23=11088
\n" ); document.write( "11088/22=504
\n" ); document.write( "so both 22 and 23 are factors
\n" ); document.write( "since we want 4 consecutive numbers the factors must be
\n" ); document.write( "20,21,22,23,
\n" ); document.write( "21,22,23,24
\n" ); document.write( "22,23,24,25
\n" ); document.write( "21 or 24 or both are factors
\n" ); document.write( "let's test 21
\n" ); document.write( "504/21=24
\n" ); document.write( "the factors are 21,22,23,24\r
\n" ); document.write( "
