Answer:

9, 18

Explanation:

The key word "product" tells us to multiply.

And, you probably know, but "integer" just means "number".

The question is, essentially:
A × B = 162 where A is half of B.

As someone who was never gifted in math, my best suggestion for something like this is to grab a calculator and start dividing 162 by all the numbers below 10. You will know you've got your answer when the calculator gives you a number that is twice the number you divided by.

In this case, I divided 162 by 9 and got 18. Since 9 is half of 18, and multiplied they make 162, we know this is the correct answer.

Hope this helps
