Maria, Keisha, Jo, and Leah wear jerseys numbered 5, 8, 13, and 36, but not necessarily in that order. The girl wearing 8 has a better jumpshot than Maria or Leah. Jo’s jersey number is divisible by 6. The number of letters in one name is the same as her number. What number does each wear?

Hello! :)
1) Jo- 36
36 is the only number listed that's divisible (able to be divided) by 6
2) Keisha- 8
The problem specifies that number 8 can't be Mariah or Leah, and we already figured out what number Jo is.
3) Maria- 5
The letters in her name match up.
4) Leah- 13
That leaves Leah as number 13
