What two consecutive numbers have a product of 702?

Let the first number be x, which makes the second number (x + 1)

We know that the two numbers multiply to give 702

x(x+1) = 702

x2 + x - 702 = 0

Using the quadratic formula, we find that the possible values of x are -27 and 26

Therefore there are two possible solutions to this problem.

The first solution is -27 and -26.

The second solution is 26 and 27.
