Question

What 2 numbers equal 26, and the same 2 numbers multiplied equal 88? I know the answer is 24 and 2, but I need to know how to solve the problem on paper.

Answer 1

You need to find the factors of 88 that can have the sum of 26.

88 / 1 = 88
88 / 2 = 44
88 / 4 = 22

4 x 22 = 88
4 + 22 = 26

The 2 numbers are 4 and 22.

Answer 2

4️⃣ and 2️⃣2️⃣ hope that helped
