If the product of two positive integers is 120 and their sum is 23, what is the positive difference between the two integers?
✓ Correct Answer: Option C
Let the integers be x and y. Given xy = 120 and x+y = 23. By finding factors of 120 that sum to 23, we find 8 and 15 (since 8*15=120 and 8+15=23). The positive difference is |15 - 8| = 7.
