3 and 12

3 + 12 = 15

and

3 * 12 = 36

The question is asking us to find two numbers which when added will give us 15 and when multiplied will give us 36.

We can find the numbers from the factors of 36 .

Let us look at the numbers that multiply to give us 36.

36=2x13

36=3x12..........................3+12=15

36=4x9

36=6x6

36=36x1

Out of these pair of numbers we will look for the pair which when added will give 15

12+3=15.

We got the two numbers which when multiplied will give 36 and when added 15.

The numbers 3 and 12 when multiplied will give 36 and the sum of these numbers is 15.
