Denote the lowest of the three consecutive numbers as n. Then the other numbers are n +1 and n +2. From the problem statement, n(n + 1) = (n + 2)2 -52, or:
n2 + n = n2 + 4n + 4 - 52, or 3n = 48, or n = 16. Check: 16 X 17 = 272; 18 X 18 = 324; 324 - 272 = 52.

Find 4 consecutive even integers where the product of the two smaller numbers is 72 less than the product of the larger two integers?
They are 6, 8, 10 and 12.
The product of 2 consecutive odd numbers is 63 what is the larger number?
9
What is the largest of 3 consecutive negative integers if the product of the larger two integers is 5 more than the smaller integer?
-1
Two consecutive odd integers have a product of 99 find the larger number?
The two numbers are 9 and 11, or indeed -9 and -11. Therefore, the larger number is 11 (or -9).
Find 4 consecutive integers even integers where the product of the smaller number is 72 less than the product of the two larger numbers?
The four even integers are 6, 8, 10, 12. 6 x 8 = 48 10 x 12 = 120 120 - 48 = 72

Find 3 consecutive odd numbers where the product of the two smaller numbers is 22 less than the product of the two larger numbers?
In 'normal' arithmetic, there is no solution of 3 consecutive odd numbers where the product of the smaller two is 22 less than that of the larger two. For instance difference in products for 1-3-5 is 12, for 3-5-7 it is 20, and for 5-7-9 it is 28. The series steps by 8 integers for each set of 3 odd numbers investigated.
What are 4 consecutive even integers where the product of the smaller two numbers is 72 less than the product of the two larger numbers?
6 x 8 = 48 10 x 12 = 120 120 - 48 = 72
The product of two positive consecutive numbers is 42. What is the larger number?
6 times 7 = 42 and so 7 is the larger number

-1
Why can't two consecutive whole numbers be prime?
In fact, they can. 2 and 3 are consecutive prime numbers.For larger numbers, one of two consecutive numbers will always be even, and therefore, not a prime.In fact, they can. 2 and 3 are consecutive prime numbers.For larger numbers, one of two consecutive numbers will always be even, and therefore, not a prime.In fact, they can. 2 and 3 are consecutive prime numbers.For larger numbers, one of two consecutive numbers will always be even, and therefore, not a prime.In fact, they can. 2 and 3 are consecutive prime numbers.For larger numbers, one of two consecutive numbers will always be even, and therefore, not a prime.
What is smaller when its larger and larger when its smaller?
Negative Numbers.
The larger of two numbers is 8 more than 4 times the smaller if the larger number is increased by four times the smaller the result is 40?
The larger of two numbers is 8 more than 4 times the smaller if the larger number is increased by four times the smaller the result is 40. From this statement, we can calculate the values of the numbers where you get the value of the larger number to be 24 and that of the smaller number to be 4.
