The area is about 62.4 inch square
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If the smallest number is 'x', then the other number = x +1
x*(x+1)= 420
Use distributive property
x*x + x*1 = 420
x² + x - 420 =0 ------> this is the required quadratic equation.
First you ask yourself, can 8 go into 1? The answer is no. Can 8 go into 12? Yes, 1 time. So you put 1 on top of the 2 and subtract 8 from 12. That gives you 4. Then you pull down the 8 from 128 and ask how many times can 8 go into 48? The answer is 6. So your answer is 16. Hope I helped!
