Double my value is 18 but my product is 81 what number am I ?
---------
1/2 of 18 = 9.
------
The "product of 9" makes no sense. A product implies at least 2 numbers.

The SQUARE of a number is what you get when you multiply the number
by itself.

So it asks:

What number is such that when you multiply it by 2 you get 18,
and when you multiply it by itself you get 81?

Now you know the answer, right?
