The product of two consecutive even integers is 224. what are the integers?

2*112=224

4*56=224

8*28=224

14*16=224

Step-by-step explanation:

any one of those 4 you can use to answer the problem

16, - 16, 14, and - 14

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest way of solving this question is by setting up an equation. Let's use "n" to represent any random possible integer.

n (n + 2) = 224

Simplifying:

x^2 + 2n - 224 = 0

(n + 16) (n - 14) = 0

n = - 16, 16 or n = - 14, 14

Check:

16 * 14 = 224

-16 * - 14 = 224

Thus, answers of 16, - 16, 14, and - 14 all work correctly.
