Find two consecutive multiples of 3 whose product is 648.
Let the required consecutive multiples of 3 be 3x and 3(x + 1).
According to the given condition,
∴ x = 8 (Neglecting the negative value)
When x = 8,
3x = 3 × 8 = 24
3(x + 1) = 3 × (8 + 1) = 3 × 9 = 27
Hence, the required multiples are 24 and 27.
