Question:
Find two consecutive natural numbers whose product is 20.
Solution:
Let two consecutive numbers be $x$ and $(x+1)$
Then according to question
$x(x+1)=20$
$x^{2}+x-20=0$
$x^{2}+5 x-4 x-20=0$
$x(x+5)-4(x+5)=0$
$(x+5)(x-4)=0$
$(x+5)=0$
$x=-5$
Or
$(x-4)=0$
$x=4$
Since, x being a natural number,
Therefore negative value is not possible
So when $x=4$ then
$x+1=4+1$
$=5$
Thus, two consecutive numbers are 4,5
