Solution

The correct option is A 25
The product of any two consecutive even numbers or odd numbers can be written as, the square of the first number minus 1.

Therefore, $24 \times 26$ can be written as
$24 \times 26 = 624 \Rightarrow 24 \times 26 = 625 - 1 \Rightarrow 24 \times 26 = 25^{2} - 1$

Thus, the value of $x$ is 25.
