6 0

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

Consecutive means in a row

x = 1st number

x+1 = 2nd number

x+x+1 = 17

Combine like terms

2x+1 = 17

Subtract 1 from each side

2x+1-1=17-1

2x = 16

Divide each side by 2

2x/2 =16/2

x=8

x+1 = 9

The larger number is 9

miss Akunina [59]
The fastest way is to just use a scientific calculator.

To do it without a calculator, use prime factorization.

I'll only do the second one which is the answer.

27 x 8

= 3^3 x 2^3 = 6^3

Which is a perfect cube.
