Interesting factorizations| Num3ers 7928 and 7929

Recently
Benjamin Vitale posted interesting relationship between numbers 7928 and 7928 on his blog in his article article here

The two consecutive numbers can be expressed as follows

7928 = 8 * 991

7929 = 9 * 881

So, I wrote little python script to find more pairs like this and posting it as below.

And It is interesting to find that all 3-digit multipliers are ending with 1.

201 * 1 = 201 and 101 * 2 = 202
201 * 3 = 603 and 301 * 2 = 602
