Consecutive numbers would be like 2 and 3, or 7 and 8.
All we need to do is keep multiplying pairs of consecutive numbers until we get above 50.
1 × 2 = 2 (that's one.)
2 × 3 = 6 (two)
3 × 4 = 12 (three)
4 × 5 = 20 (four)
5 × 6 = 30 (five)
6 × 7 = 42 (six...)
<em>7 × 8 = 56 > 50</em>
We have a total of 6 numbers that equal the product of 2 consecutive intergers<em>

I think it would be 13 hours possibly
Step-by-step explanation:
since both objects and sides are similar, you can set each side equal, then you cross multiply, and do subtraction, then find x.
Since simple interest doesn't involve compounding, the same amount gets added on every year. So, the equation for the simple interest received is

, where

is the total interest,

is the original deposit (or "principal"),

is the interest rate, and

is the time passed in years.
Plugging in our values, we can solve for the interest rate:
