Why are antiviral mattress protectors a priority for health and safety?
A mattress protector or a mattress cover is essentially a bedding item made to encase your mattress to protect you and your sleep
The two positive integer numbers, a and b satisfy that a(a-b) = 23. What is b?
a(a-b)=23
So, a or b has to be 1. Following up on that
Let a = 1
1 - b = 23
- b = 23 - 1
b = - 22 (rejected, a and b both has to be positive as per question)
Now let, (a - b) = 1, so a has to be 23
because
23(a-b)=23*1 = 23
So, then we should have
a - b = 1
or, 23 - b = 1
or, b = 23 - 1
or, b = 22
This is indeed the answer, a and b are both positive in this case, as required
