when i divide number A by number B, the answer is 6 1/4.
= 6
We can write this as
A = 6.25B
If number A is less than 30 and number B is less than 10,
A < 30
B < 10
From the above statement, we know that B < 5 (5 * 6.25 = 31.25)
Assuming these are integers B = 4, then
A * 6.25 = 25

what are numbers A and B? 25 and 4
