You go out shopping and find someone offering a REALLY nice pair of shoes.?

You ask what they want for it and the reply:

Suppose you have two numbers. The difference of the two numbers is 12. The product of the two numbers is 17. Multiply the larger of the two numbers by 100, add 50 times the smaller number to that, round the total to the nearest whole number, and that's my price."

how much do they want for it?

Update:

What is neopets??? I don't really get around on the internet much.But I'm homeschooled and would like to see how many people get it right.

    If the product of the two numbers is 17 somethings wrong

    17 is a prime number and the it can only be 17*1

    and 17 - 1 is not 12
