Answer:

  6 and -4

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum is near 0, so the factors will be near √24, approximately 5. From your knowledge of multiplication facts, you know that 4×6 = 24.

The product will be negative when one of these factors is negative. Since you want a positive sum, the larger one must be positive.

  The numbers are 6 and -4.
