Call your numbers A and B.
\n" ); document.write( "1. $\"AB=676\"$
\n" ); document.write( "2. $\"A%2FB=4\"$
\n" ); document.write( "From eq. 2,
\n" ); document.write( "2. $\"A%2FB=4\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"A=4B\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute that into eq. 1,
\n" ); document.write( "1. $\"AB=676\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%284B%29B=676\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"4B%5E2=676\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"B%5E2=169\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"B=13\"$ or $\"B=-13\"$
\n" ); document.write( "From eq. 2,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"A=4B\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"A=4%2813%29\"$ or $\"A=4%28-13%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"A=52\"$ or $\"A=-52\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Two solutions,
