Question

In a division sum, the divisor is 10 times the quotient and 5 times the remainder .if the remainder is 46, what is the divident?

Answer 1

rem=46, :. Quotient = rem/2 = 23, :. divisor = rem * 5 = 230
  number = (divisor * quotient) + remainder = (230*23) +46 = 575

Answer 2

dividend is 575. you know that. dividend= divisor *quotient+remainder let quotient be 'x'. then divisor is 10x. and also divisor is 5 times the remainder. you know the remainder as 46. just multiply 46*5 to get our divisor divisor will be 230. then quotient is x=230/10=23. now just substitute these values in the above formula to get your answer as divided is 575
