Answer:
<em>If statement(1) holds true, it is correct that </em>
<em> is an integer.</em>
<em>If statement(2) holds true, it is not necessarily correct that </em>
<em> is an integer.</em>
<em></em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given two positive integers
and
.
To check whether
is an integer:
Condition (1):
Every factor of
is also a factor of
.

Let us consider an example:

which is an integer.
Actually, in this situation
is a factor of
.
Condition 2:
Every prime factor of <em>s</em> is also a prime factor of <em>r</em>.
(But the powers of prime factors need not be equal as we are not given the conditions related to powers of prime factors.)
Let


which is not an integer.
So, the answer is:
<em>If statement(1) holds true, it is correct that </em>
<em> is an integer.</em>
<em>If statement(2) holds true, it is not necessarily correct that </em>
<em> is an integer.</em>

Let's say our first integer is "a".
how to get the next consecutive EVEN integer? well, just add or subtract 2 from it, therefore, the second consecutive integer will be "a + 2".
and the next after that, will then be (a + 2) + 2, or "a + 4".
so those are are 3 integers, a a + 2 a+4
notice that, from any even or odd integer, if you hop twice either forwards or backwards, you'll land on another even or odd integer respectively.
2 + 2 is 4, or 8 + 2 is 10 some even ones
3 + 2 is 5, or 13 + 2 is 15, some odd ones
![\bf \stackrel{\textit{3 times the first}}{3a}~~=~~\stackrel{\textit{26 less than twice the sum of the others}}{2[~(a+2)+(a+4)~]~~~-26} \\\\\\ 3a=2[~2a+6~]-26\implies 3a=4a+12-26\implies 3a=4a-14 \\\\\\ 0=a-14\implies 14=a](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbf%20%5Cstackrel%7B%5Ctextit%7B3%20times%20the%20first%7D%7D%7B3a%7D~~%3D~~%5Cstackrel%7B%5Ctextit%7B26%20less%20than%20twice%20the%20sum%20of%20the%20others%7D%7D%7B2%5B~%28a%2B2%29%2B%28a%2B4%29~%5D~~~-26%7D%0A%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%0A3a%3D2%5B~2a%2B6~%5D-26%5Cimplies%203a%3D4a%2B12-26%5Cimplies%203a%3D4a-14%0A%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%0A0%3Da-14%5Cimplies%2014%3Da)
what are the other two consecutive integers? well, a + 2 and a + 4.
