x + y = 7.75 →(1)
x - y = 2.25 →(2)
Add (1) & (2)
2x = 10
x= 5
y = 2.25
xy = 5 * 2.25
= 12.25
x - y = 2.25 →(2)
Add (1) & (2)
2x = 10
x= 5
y = 2.25
xy = 5 * 2.25
= 12.25

Your answer is ---
Let the number be x and y and x > y .
according to question
x + y = 7.75 .....(1)
x - y = 2.25 ......(2)
adding equation (1) & (2) , we get
2x = 10
=> x = 10/2
=> x = 5
put this value in equation (1) , we get
5 + y = 7.75
=> y = 7.75 - 5
=> y = 2.75
Therefore , their product is
x*y = 5 × 2.75
=> x*y = 13.75
Let the number be x and y and x > y .
according to question
x + y = 7.75 .....(1)
x - y = 2.25 ......(2)

put this value in equation (1) , we get
5 + y = 7.75

=> y = 2.75
Therefore , their product is
x*y = 5 × 2.75
=> x*y = 13.75
