When you multiply two numbers, you get the product
When you multiply two numbers, it is called the product.
The two (or more) numbers that you multiply are called factors. (The result of the multiplication is called the product.)
This problem cannot be completed with real numbers because the highest possible product of two numbers that add up to 27, which is 13.5*13.5=182.25, is nowhere even close to 504.
You need at least two numbers to find an LCM. If that's 18, 24 and 42, the LCM is 504.

When you multiply two numbers, you get the product
To find three consecutive numbers that multiply together to equal 504, we can set up the equation x(x+1)(x+2) = 504. By expanding this equation, we get x^3 + 3x^2 + 2x - 504 = 0. By trial and error or using algebraic methods, we find that the three consecutive numbers are 7, 8, and 9, as 789 = 504.
No whole numbers fulfill that condition.
