You can put this solution on YOUR website! They have to be even numbers.
If they were both odd, the product would be odd.
If one were odd and one even, the sum would be odd.
--------------------------------
They have to be multiples of 10.
The 2 LS digits are 00. If they're not multiples of 10, then one of the numbers is 25, but it's already been determined that both number are even.
That makes the problem:
what two numbers added together that equals 7 but when multiplied it equals 6?
That factors of 6 are 1 & 6, or 2 & 3
1 + 6 = 7
--> 10 & 60

---------------------------------
Equation:
x + y = 70
xy = 600
------------------
y = 70-x
---
Substitute and solve for "x":
x(70-x) = 600
70x -x^2 = 600
x^2-70x+600 = 0
---
Factor:
(x-10)(x-60) = 0
---
If x = 10, y = 60
If x = 60, y = 10
