SSC Selection Post - Higher Secondary Level - 25 June 2024 - Shift 4 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q68

In a division sum, the divisor is 10 times the quotient and 5 times the remainder. If the remainder is 12, then what is the dividend?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. 372.

Divisor = 5 × 12 = 60

Quotient = Divisor/10 = 60/10 = 6

Dividend = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder

Dividend = 60 × 6 + 12

Dividend = 360 + 12 = 372
