A: “What happened to all the zartyls?” asked Fred, looking around their pet shop. “The lizards from Mars?” Sally smiled. “You thought they’d never sell at nearly £2 each, but every kid who came in today wanted one.”“All the same price too,” her husband commented. “We should have charged more, anyway we did take £25.61 for the slimy things.” How many had he sold?

B: “So they gave you a three-figure number,” said George, looking at Alan’s new car. “How will you remember this one?”His friend chuckled. “It did take a bit of finding, but it’s really quite simple. The number is just twice the sum of the squares of its digits.”Simple for some! But what was the number?
