15 and 3
--
a + b = 18
a = 18 - b
a * b = 45
(1-b)*b = 45
18b-b^2 = 45
b^2-18b = -45
b^2-18b+81 = 36
(b-9)^2 = 6^2
b-9 = +/-6
b = 9+/-6 = 3, 15
a = (18 -b ) = 18 - 9 +/- 6
a = 15, 3
What's the question ? Is it to find what the two numbers are ? Since you know their average, you know what the sum of the two numbers is. It's double their average. Now you know their sum, and you know their product. Take the product, and list all of its factors. Find two of the factors that add up to the sum of the two numbers. Those are probably the two numbers you're looking for.
If the product of two numbers is 4.2 and their sum is 4.4. then the numbers are 3 and 1.4.
the PRODUCT :)
The product is 1254. The sum is 79.
17 and 3 are two prime numbers whose sum is 20. Their product is 51.

There's no product or sum until you have at least two numbers.
The product is 1254. The sum is 79.
'Product' is another way of saying 'multiply the two numbers together'.
Any two odd numbers will have an odd product and an even sum.
17 and 3 are two prime numbers whose sum is 20. Their product is 51.
If two numbers have a sum of 31 and a product of 228, then the two numbers are 12 and 19. Adding them will give you 31, and multiplying them gives you 228.
It is impossible for the product of two prime numbers to be prime. It is impossible for the sum of two prime numbers to be prime as long as one of the numbers isn't 2.
There are no real numbers with the sum of 4 and a product of -477. The factors of -477 are (1,-477), (3, -159) and (9, -53). The negatives can be switched to the other numbers in those pairs of factors.
numbers are 37 and 5
