Yes - but a product of 143 is not the same as totalling 143!!

11 and 13 are odd numbers. Between 11 and 13 is no other odd number. And the produkt of 11 and 13 is 143:

11*13=143

Is it that, you want to know?

Here is an example how to find out:
If the product in your case would have been 3363, what would have been the two numbers?
Take the square root of 3363=57.99.
The numbers are given by taking the closest odd numbers lower and higher =57 and 59.
