Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Integers with a product of 567 are ...
567 = 1·567 = 3·189 = 7·81 = 9·63 = 21·27
The last of these pairs of factors have a difference of 6, so they are the answers.
Jackie's number is 27; Adrian's number is 21.
_____
You could let "a" represent Adrian's number and write the equation ...
a(a +6) = 567
a^2 +6a +9 = 576 . . . . . complete the square
(a +3)^2 = 24^2 . . . . . . . write as squares
a = -3 +24 = 21 . . . . . . . . take the positive square root; subtract 3
Adrian's number is 21; Jackie's number is 27.
