Can you guys help me with this question?

The equation tells you that something times something gives 12. Based on that, you need to find pairs that satisfy this. And since it specifies that it needs to be ordered, you need to take care of that too (that means (x,y) is not the same as (y,x))

There are 6 multiplication possibilities (like, 1x6, 2x3, etc). With that in mind, for each possibility, plug in the provided equation to identify x and y. You will have to go through each possibility individually because this one is supposed to trick you.

Based on that, 14 is the answer.
