Chef has invented $1$ -minute Instant Noodles. As the name suggests, each packet takes exactly $1$ minute to cook.

Chef’s restaurant has $X$ stoves and only $1$ packet can be cooked in a single pan.

How many customers can Chef serve in $Y$ minutes if each customer orders exactly $1$ packet of noodles?

The first and only line of input contains two space-separated integers $X$ and $Y$ — the number of stoves and the number of minutes, respectively.

Print a single integer, the maximum number of customers Chef can serve in $Y$ minutes

3 7

Chef cooks for $Y = 7$ minutes and can cook $X = 3$ packets per minute, one on each stove.

So, the total number of packets that can be cooked is $X \cdot Y = 3 \cdot 7 = 21$ .

Each person orders one packet, so the maximum number of customers that can be served is $21$ .

7 8

Chef cooks for $Y = 8$ minutes and can cook $X = 7$ packets per minute, one on each stove.

So, the total number of packets that can be cooked is $X \cdot Y = 7 \cdot 8 = 56$ .

Each person orders one packet, so the maximum number of customers that can be served is $56$ .
