I am a two-digit number. The product of my digits is 12, and the sum of my digits is 7. What number am I?
34
The pairs of digits that multiply to 12 are (1,12 - invalid), (2,6 - sum is 8), and (3,4 - sum is 7). The digits are 3 and 4, making the number 34 (or 43, but 3+4=7 works for both; let's check order: 3*4=12, 3+4=7).
