Let the two required numbers be x and y, then x - y = 176, thus y = x - 176.

Let the product of the two numbers be represented by

P = xy x(x - 176) = x^2 - 176x

For the product to be minimum, \frac{dP}{dx} =0

\frac{dP}{dx} =2x - 176=0 \\  \\ \Rightarrow2x=176 \\  \\ \Rightarrow x=88

Thus, y = 88 - 176 = -88

Therefore, the two numbers are 88 and -88.
