Answer:
<em>The answer is 13</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Two positive and consecutive old numbers are x and x - 2.
=> x(x - 2) = 143
=> x^2 - 2x - 143 = 0
=> x^2 + 11x - 13x - 143 = 0
=> x(x + 11) - 13(x + 11) = 0
=> (x + 11)(x - 13) = 0
=> x = -11 (invalid)
or x = 13 (valid), the remaining number is 13 - 2 = 11
=> The two numbers are 11 and 13, and the greater number is 13.
Hope this helps!
