Answer :

4

Solution :

Let two numbers are x and y

Given,                     (x + y) = 26

                                       xy = 165

  We know that, (x – y)2 = (x + y)2 – 4xy

                                            = (26)2 – 4 × 165

                               (x – y)2 = 16

                                      x-y = 4
