Let the two numbers be ( x ) and ( y ). According to the problem, we have the equations ( xy = 36 ) and ( x - y = 5 ). By solving these equations simultaneously, we can express ( x ) as ( y + 5 ) and substitute it into the first equation, leading to ( (y + 5)y = 36 ). This results in the quadratic equation ( y^2 + 5y - 36 = 0 ), which can be solved to find the values of ( x ) and ( y ). The two numbers are 9 and 4.
