    If the sum of two numbers is 22 and the sum of their squares is 404, then the product of the number is

    A) 40        

    B) 44      

    C) 80                                

    D) 88

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Let two numbers be A and B. Then, A + B = 22 and \[{{A}^{2}}+{{B}^{2}}=404\] We know that             \[{{(A+B)}^{2}}={{A}^{2}}+{{B}^{2}}+2AB\] Or         \[{{(22)}^{2}}=404+2AB\] Or         \[484=404+2AB\] Or         \[2AB=80\] Or         \[AB=40\] The product of the two numbers = 40
