Suppose the two numbers be a and b
(a + b) = 13
ab = 42

Assumption
Numbers be x and y (y < x)
Given,
= x + y = 13
xy = 42
Hence now,
x + y = 13
x = 13 - y ............. (1)
xy = 42
(13 - y)y = 42
13y - y² = 42
y² - 13y + 42 = 0
y² - (7 + 6)y + 42 = 0
y² - 7y - 6y + 42 = 0
y(y - 7) - 6(y - 7) = 0
(y - 7)(y - 6) = 0
Therefore,
If y - 6 = 0
y = 6
Also,
x = 13 - y
x = 13 - 6
x = 7
If y - 7 = 0
y = 7
x = 13 - y
x = 13 - 7
x = 6
Hence,
