Wacko Calculator (Posted on 2003-07-03) Difficulty: 2 of 5
I was using a calculator one day, and punched in a number, then punched "divided by", then punched another number and got back .01234567890123456789... I thought the calculator was wacko, but the calculator was right.

If the two numbers I put in were relatively prime, what were they?
