Answer 1

Answer:

-10 and 4 so diff is 14..

as their product is negative so one no.must be negative and one must be positive.now just now just add and substract 1 from -3 until u get the numbers whose product is - 40

Answer 2

Answer: 14

Step-by-step explanation:

The product is 40 so you need to find to find multiples of 40.

The multiples are 4 and -10 and coincidentally the halfway point between those numbers is minus three so the missing numbers are 4 and -10.

The now you need to find the difference between them and the if ypu worked it out the difference would be 14.
