Question

Sum of two numbers = 16 differnce of the numbers = 6 find the numbers. What is thier product

Answer 1

Answer:

55

Step-by-step explanation:

let the two numbers be a and b

according to the given condition

a + b = 16

a - b = 6

adding the above equations

we get,

2 a = 22

a = 11

now using any of the above equations

b = 5

the product of the two numbers is ab = 11 × 5

= 55

Answer 2

product is 55

Step-by-step explanation:

lets take 2 no. as x and y

sum of two no. are 16

= x+y=16. eq1

difference of two no. are 6

= x-y= 6. eq2

subtract eq2 from eq1

=(x+y) - (x-y) = 16-6

= x+y-x+y = 10

= 2y= 10

= y= 5

put y=5 in eq1

then we get x =11 .

now we know two no. are 11 and 5 .

Now product of 2 numbers are

11×5= 55
