The difference between two numbers is 14, and their sum is 40. Find out the product of these two numbers?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
Let the 2 numbers be: x and y
ATQ,
x + y = 40 ........(i)
x - y = 14 ........(ii)
After adding both the equations
2x = 54
x = 27
After subtracting both the equations
2y = 26
y = 13
Product = xy = 27 × 13 = 351
