when 4817 is divided by a certain positive number, the quotient is 4/3 times the divisor and the remainder is 17. find the number
Answers
Answer:
Let assume the positive number is 'k'
Now according to the question,
⇒ 4817 = k × Quotient + Remainder
⇒ 4817 = k x (4/3) + 17 --- I (Substituting Quotient = 4/3 and Remainder = 17; Here the wording of the question has to be interpretated. When we divide a number with a remainder it can be represented as N = M×Q + R. Here N is the Number, M is the Divisor or the positive Number as mentioned in the question, Q is the quotient and R is the Remainder)
Now, from equation I
4817 = k×4/3 + 17
⇒ 4817 - 17 = k×4/3
⇒ 4800 = k×4/3
⇒ (4800 × 3)/4 = k
⇒ k = (4 × 1200 × 3)/4 (4 can be cancelled in both Numerator and Denominator as a common factor)
⇒ k = (1200 × 3)
⇒ k = 3600 (Ans)
