Hey there!

First, let's list the factors of 40:

1 x 40, 2 x 20, 4 x 10, 5 x 8,

We need to figure out which pair of factors has a sum of 13.

1 + 40 = 41 --> Nope

2 + 20 = 22 --> Nope

4 + 10 = 14 --> Nope

5 + 8 = 13 --> Yes!

The two numbers that have a product of 40 and a sum of 13 are 5 and 8.

Hope this helps!
