Answer:

16, -16, 14, and -14

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest way of solving this question is by setting up an equation. Let's use "n" to represent any random possible integer.

n (n + 2)  = 224

Simplifying:

x^2 + 2n - 224 = 0

(n + 16)(n - 14) = 0

n = -16, 16 or n = -14, 14

Check:

16 * 14 = 224

-16 * -14 = 224

Thus, answers of 16, -16, 14, and -14 all work correctly.
