Let one number be x then other will be 8-x.
product is15
x(8-x)=15
8x-xsquare=15
xsguare-8x+15=0
xsquare-5x-3x+15=0
x(x-5)-3(x-5)=0
(x-3)(x-5)=0
Then num will be 3 and 5

Let the numbers be x and y
x+y=8
Product =xy=15
x=15/y
Put the value of x in sum of two numbers
x+15/x=8
(x²+15)/x=8
x²+15=8x
x²-8x+15=0
x²-(5+3)x+15=0
x²-5x-3x+15
x(x-5)-3(x-5)
(x-3)(x-5)
Then taking x as 5
Numberz are =5+y=8
y=8-5
y=3
VERIFICATION,
Sum=5+3=8
8=8
Product =3*5=15
15=15
x+y=8
Product =xy=15
x=15/y
Put the value of x in sum of two numbers
x+15/x=8
(x²+15)/x=8
x²+15=8x
x²-8x+15=0
x²-(5+3)x+15=0
x²-5x-3x+15
x(x-5)-3(x-5)
(x-3)(x-5)
Then taking x as 5
Numberz are =5+y=8
y=8-5
y=3
VERIFICATION,
Sum=5+3=8
8=8
Product =3*5=15
15=15
