Question

In an exercise on long division, the remainder is 0 when Manish mistook the divisor as 12 instead of 21 and obtained 35 as quotient. What is the correct quotient? a) 25 b) 10 c) 20 d) 15

Answer 1

Answer:

THE ANSWER IS 61

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the dividend be x.

So the equation will be:

x/21=35,0

•If the divisor is 12,

So the equation will be:

x/12=21 x 35=735

So x=735

So the new equation is:

735/12=61.25 or

•Quotient=61

•Remainder=3

But,I have got a different answer from your given options but I solved it 3-4 times and got the same the same answer.
