Question

if 380 is divide by a natural number , the quotient is 2 less than 8 times the divisor and remainder is 2 find quotient and reminder ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Divisor is 7

Quotient is  54

Remainder is 2 (mentioned)

Step-by-step explanation:

let divisor be x

(8x - 2) quotient

380 = x(8x - 2) + 2

$8x^{2} -2x - 378 = 0$

$x^{2} - 0.25x - 47.25 = 0$

solve the equation above

u get x = 7, -6.75

so x = 7

Quotient is  8(7) - 2 = 54
