To find the numerical equivalent of \( 72 \cdot 73 \), you can use the difference of squares formula:
\[
n \cdot (n + 1) = n^2 + n
\]
In this case, let \( n = 72 \):
\[
72 \cdot 73 = 72^2 + 72
\]
Calculating \( 72^2 \):
\[
72^2 = 5184
\]
Now, adding \( 72 \):
\[
5184 + 72 = 5256
\]
Therefore, the numerical equivalent of \( 72 \cdot 73 \) is \( 5256 \).
\[
n \cdot (n + 1) = n^2 + n
\]
In this case, let \( n = 72 \):
\[
72 \cdot 73 = 72^2 + 72
\]
Calculating \( 72^2 \):
\[
72^2 = 5184
\]
Now, adding \( 72 \):
\[
5184 + 72 = 5256
\]
Therefore, the numerical equivalent of \( 72 \cdot 73 \) is \( 5256 \).
