    If these are whole numbers, then st=13 means that either s=1 and t=13 or s=13 and t=1.

    rs = 16 means that s is a divisor of 2, and s=13 won't work, so s must be 1 and t=13.

    Since s=1 and rs=16, r = 16/s = 16

    So rt = (16) (13) = 208

    If these are not whole numbers, then the other answers have shown you that rt=208/s² can be any positive number. (If complex numbers are allowed, then rt can be any nonzero number, real or complex.)

    Solve for r and t

    st=13

    divide by s

    t=13/s

    rs=16

    solve for r

    divide by s

    r=16/s

    so rt = (13/s) (16/s) = (208) / (s^2)
