them is 10. Can you find the two numbers?
What is​

Answer 1

Answer:

12is first number and the other number is 2

product of two numbers is 12×2=24

differences between two numbers is 12-2=10

Answer 2

Answer:

Let the two no.s be x and y.

Product of them=》x×y=24

=》x=24/y.....(i)

Difference of them=》x-y=10

From (i)

24/y-y=10

24-y^2=10y

Now by middle term we get:

y= + 2 &y= - 12

Therefore value of y=2 (as its value cant be negative)

Therefore from (i):

X=24/y

=》x=24/2

=》x=12

Therefore the two numbers are:

12 and 2
