Lets represent one number by X ,
another number is going to X*7 , because it says 7 times is bigger,
the product of two numbers is the answer is to the multiplication problem
X*(X*7)=252
7X^2=252
X^2=252/7
X^2=36
X=+- 6
when one number is 6, another number is going to be 7*6=42
and when one number is -6, another is: -42
answer is: 6,42 and -6,-42
