In a division problem, the divisor is 7 times of quotient and 5 times of remainder. If the dividend is 6 times of remainder, then the quotient is equal to :
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
B
Divisor :
= 7 × quotient
= 5 × remainder and dividend
= 6 × remainder
Let remainder be x
Then, divisor = 5x and dividend = 6x
On dividing 6x by 5x, we get 1 as quotient and x as remainder.
∴ Quotient = 1
= 7 × quotient
= 5 × remainder and dividend
= 6 × remainder
Let remainder be x
Then, divisor = 5x and dividend = 6x
On dividing 6x by 5x, we get 1 as quotient and x as remainder.
∴ Quotient = 1
