Thorak Posted January 1, 2014 Report Share Posted January 1, 2014 There are two natural numbers greater than one, whose sum is less than 100. And there are two friends: Peter, who knows the product of the numbers, and Paul, who knows their sum. A following dialogue takes place: Peter: "I don't know those numbers." Paul: "I knew you wouldn't. I don't know them either." Peter: "Now I know them!" Paul: "Now I know them, too!" What are those two numbers?
