Answer: 3.5 * 2.5 = 8.75

Explanation:

The factors are to be less than 10 but are should be two digit numbers. The only way this is possible would be if they had decimals.

Which two numbers below 10 can give a product less than 10 but more than 8?

3 and 3 would give 9 which is the closest to our constraints.

Both numbers cannot be similar however and have to have a decimal but the factors should be around 3 but not up to 4 as this would pass the 10.

3.5 * 2.5 = 8.75 would work.
