Let x be the page number then x+1 would be the other page number (because the pages are two facing pages which means they follow on consecutively)
Then
(x)(x+1) = 156
x^2 + x - 156 = 0
x = 12 or x = -13( but x can't be a negative number)
so x = 12
and the next page is 13

Answer:
x = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
Consecutive means in a row
Let x be the first integer
x+1 is the second
x+2 is the third
x+3 is the 4th
The sum is 50
x+ x+1 + x+2 + x+3 = 50
Combine like terms
4x+6 = 50
Subtract 6 from each side
4x+6-6 = 50-6
4x = 44
Divide each side by 4
4x/4 = 44/4
x = 11
