$(m,n)=(4,-20)$ works too.

6th grade MOP, 7th TST and IMO

1st grade refers to 1st grade of high school I believe.

Use Simon's Favorite Factoring Trick. $$mn-10m-10n=0 \Longrightarrow m(n-10)-10n+100=100 \Longrightarrow (m-10)(n-10)=100$$. Thus finding all the factors of $100$ which are $1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 25, 50, 100$, we can find the answer.
