An interviewer invites two applicants to an interview. He thinks of a two digit number. To one applicant, he tells the sum of the 2 digits of the number. To the other, he tells the product. The two applicants then have the following conversation:
A: I don't know the numbers.
B: I don't know the numbers either, and I knew you wouldn't know them.
A: I now know the numbers.
B: I also now know the numbers.
How will you determine the two digit number or the individual digits?
