    AxB = 0.2

    A/B = 0.8

    The easiest way is to get the factors of 0.2 and divide the smaller one by the bigger one until you get 0.8

    0.1 and 2

    0.2 and 1

    0.3 doesn’t work

    0.4 and 0.5 is the last one

    0.4x0.5 = 0.2

    And

    0.4/0.5 = 0.8

    So the two numbers are 0.4 and 0.5

    Let the numbers be a and b, then ab=0.2 and a/b=0.8, so a=0.8b. Therefore, 0.8b^2=0.2 and b^2=0.2/0.8=2/8=1/4 and b=+1/2 or + 0.5 and a=+0.8*0.5 = + 0.4. The two numbers are therefore 0.5 and 0.4 or - 0.5 and - 0.4. The quotient is 0.4/0.5
