Question

the dividend divisor quotient and remainder all this number start from 1 and none of them being one
find the dividend?
pls help me​

Answer 1

As others have said, there are an infinite number of answers for the dividend and quotient when you are given only the divisor and remainder. So, by definition a dividend, call it dd, divided by a divisor, call it dr, produces a quotient, call it k, and a remainder, call it r, or dd/dr = k + r. Put another way, dd = (dr * k) + r. Let’s say you are told that the divisor,(dr) equals 3 and the remainder (r) = 1. If the value of the quotient (k) is 4, then the dividend (dd) = 3*4 + 1 = 13, and of course 13 / 3 = 4 with a remainder of 1. But there’s nothing stopping the value of k to be 5, which would give a dividend of 3*5 + 1 = 16, or k could equal 105 giving a dividend of

3*105 + 1 = 316, and 316 / 3 = 105 + 1. So if you were given just the divisor and the remainder, k (the quotient) could take on any whole number value and we could easily compute a dividend such that the value of the divisor and the remainder would equal the values you were given.
