how do I split parsed html output using python?

I have this html 

<tr class="BgWhite"> 
 <td headers="th6" valign="top">
    0070648261<br/>QTY: 3
 </td>
</tr>

I want to obtain "0070648261" and "3" separately as in ID = 0070648261 and quantity = 3. I was able to use the code below 

container1.find("td", {"headers": "th6"}).text.strip()

to produce this output 

   0070648261<br/>QTY: 3

but how do I split and the output to get

ID = 0070648261 quantity = 3 ?

Why not to do that with regex? 

import re
s = '<tr class="BgWhite"> <td headers="th6" valign="top">0070648261<br/>QTY: 3</td></tr>'

res = re.findall(r'(\d+)<br/>QTY: (\d+)', s)[0]
print('ID = {} quantity = {}'.format(res[0], res[1]))

Try this.

a="0070648261<br/>QTY: 3"
a=a.split("<br/>")
a="ID = "+a[0]+" quantity ="+a[1].split(':')[1]

Output:

'ID = 0070648261 quantity = 3'
