Question

A student opens a mathematics book to two facing pages. The product of the page numbers is 1482. Find page numbers for first and second page?

Answer 1

what does it mean by "facing pages"?

Answer 2

I'm not sure that is the question they gave me and have no clue by what it means either

Answer 3

second = first +1
let x be the second page
x*(x-1) = 1482
x^2 -x -1482 = 0
(x-39)(x+38) =0
x = 39

first = 38, second=39

it means they are consecutive pages
