Jennifer says that the lowest common multiple of two consecutive numbers is equal to the product of the two numbers. by trying four different pairs of consecutive numbers, explore her theory.

Ok...lets explore..

2 consecutive numbers2 and 3the LCM is 62 * 3 = 6that works
2 consecutive numbers3 and 4the LCM is 123 * 4 = 12...that works
2 consecutive numbers5 and 6the LCM is 305 * 6 = 30..that works
2 consecutive numbers1 and 2the LCM is 21 * 2 = 2...that works

her theory appears to be true.
