In the below figure block B weighs 711 N and the coefficient of static friction between it and the table is 0.25. Find the maximum weight of block A for a completely stationary system.

I will assume that block A is attached by a string to block B. Further, block A is hanging down over the side of the table trying to pull block B, which is on the table, down with it. Is that good guess, since you don't show us the figure?
The largest frictional force that the table can apply to block B is 711 * .25 Newtons, and that is the maximum weight that block A can have is the system is to remain stationary.
Or do you want to use the same figure as Math? is using?
