You need to look for 2 numbers which have a product of 156 and a difference of 1.
First 156 can be written as a product of it's prime factors:
156 = 22 x 3 x 13.
From this you can see that 22 x 3 = 12 and hence 12 x 13 = 156.
1 is the smallest positive integer. But if you include negative integers, there is no smallest.
The smallest is 121.
The positive integers are {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ...}. The smallest one is 1.
numbers that come after one another (ie 3,4) and that are positive
consecutive integers
For x, which is the largest integer of nconsecutive positive integers of which the smallest is m:x = m + n - 1
1 is the smallest positive integer. But if you include negative integers, there is no smallest.
The smallest is 121.
The positive integers are {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ...}. The smallest one is 1.

59,61,63,65 It is 59
consecutive integers
The product of two consecutive positive integers can be found by multiplying the smaller integer by the larger integer. If the smaller integer is represented as ( n ), then the larger integer would be ( n + 1 ). Therefore, the product of two consecutive positive integers is ( n \times (n + 1) ).
Infinitely many in both cases.
The LCM of a set of integers is the smallest positive integer which each of them will divide evenly.An alternative characteristic is that it is the smallest positive integer which is in the times-table of each of the numbers.
"Consecutive" integers are integers that have no other integer between them.
The sum of three consecutive integers is -72
