Answer:

B = (A - 6) / 10

Explanation:

This problem has 2 variables and 1 equation so it is not trivial to solve with confidence the value of B; however, we can solve for B in terms of A. With that being said, let's start.

If A divided by B = 10:

A/B = 10

10 remainder of 6

Could also be written as 10 & 6/B since B is the divisor. Rewrite this, you can get the equation:

A/B = (10B + 6) / B

A = 10B + 6

A - 6 = 10B

B = (A - 6) / 10

Thus, you have solve B in terms of A.

Cheers.
