there can be many answers...
my answer wud be 4 and 3...
bcse product 4*3 = 12 can be either from 4 & 3 or 6 & 2 ....and 6 + 2 = 8 can only be from 4 & 2
and 4 + 3 =7 can be either from 4 & 3 or 5 & 2...and 5*2=10 can only be from 5 & 2.

Two people, named Priti and Shalini, are talking about two numbers x and y. (note: x and y are both integers greater than or equal to 2). Shalini knows their sum (x+y), while Priti knows their product (xy); however, initially NEITHER knows x and y.
Shalini: Hey Priti! I don't know what the numbers are.
Priti: I'm not surprised. I KNEW you didn't know. However, I too don't
know.
Shalini: You don't? Really! Then I know what the numbers are!
What are the two numbers?
