A times B = 114+3040=3154 Find A and B

Variables are cool wyazaef

Arturo O.

To find 2 unknowns A and B, you need 2 independent equations.  Only one is provided:
 
AB = 3154
 
At best, you can express A in terms of B:
 
A = 3154/B
 
or you can express B in terms of A:
B = 3154/A
 
Provide a second equation and the solution can be completed.

By the rather poorly formed equation, A and B could be any of a unlimited number of numbers!

So we need that second, independent equation.  It looks like this is a third, and modified posting of the same problem.  At least this time it has the correct value for the sum of 114 + 3040.  Other than that, it remains a very poor posting.
