When two positive integers are multiplied, the result is 24 . When these two integers are added, the result is 11 . When the smaller integer is subtracted from the larger integer, the result is
(A) 2
(B) 3
(C) 4
(D) 5
(E) 6
The positive divisor pairs of 24 are:

1 and $24 \quad 2$ and $12 \quad 3$ and $8 \quad 4$ and 6

Of these, the pair whose sum is 11 is 3 and 8 .

The difference between these two integers is $8-3=5$.
