    Let's x represents the first odd integer

    The next consecutive integer would be represented as x+2.

    So x and x+2 being multiplied together will give us 1443:

    (x) (x+2) = 1443

    x^2+2x=1443

    x^2+2x-1443=0

    By solving the quadratic equation using the quadratic formula, x will equal to 37 and - 39.

    Since the problem says "integers", so I'm assuming two pairs of consecutive integers would be ok.

    With that said you 1st pair will be: 37,39

    Your second pair will be: - 37,-39.
