In a division sum, the divisor is 12 times the quotient and 5 times the remainder . If the remainder be 48 then the dividend is?

Question

Accepted Answer

Let quotient = Q and remainder = R Then, Divisor = 12 Q =5 R Now, R = 48 ⇒ 12Q = 5 x 48 ⇒ Q = 20 Dividend = Divisor x Quotient + Remainder ∴ dividend = ( 20 x 240 + 48 ) = 4848
