In a division problem, the divisor is 4 times the quotient and 2 times the remainder. If the remainder is 32, then find the dividend.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. 1056.
The remainder = 32, The divisor = 4 × quotient Or 2 × Remainder
Since the remainder r = 32, we can substitute this into the equation for the divisor:
Divisor = 2r
⇒ 2 × 32 = 64
Now,
The divisor = 4 × quotient
⇒ 64 = 4 × quotient
⇒ Quotient = 16
We know that,
Dividend = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder
Dividend = 64 × 16 + 32
⇒ 1024 + 32 = 1056
Thus, the dividend is ₹1056.
