An equation is formed of two equal expressions. The quadratic equation that can be used to find x, the smaller number is x²+x-272.

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is formed when two equal expressions are equated together with the help of an equal sign '='.

Let the first number be x.

Now since the two numbers are consecutive numbers the other number will be (x+1). Also, it is mentioned in the problem that the product of the two numbers is 272. Therefore, the equation that can represent the product will be,

x \times (x+1) = 272\\\\x^2 + x =272\\\\x^2 + x -272 = 0

Thus, the quadratic equation that can be used to find x, the smaller number is x²+x-272.
