In doing a question of division with zero remainder. a candidate took 12 divisor instead of 21. The quotient obtained by him was 35. The correct quotient is :
B. 12
C. 13
D. 20
Answer: Option D
Solution (By Examveda Team)
Divisor taken = 12Quotient obtained = 35,
Remainder = 0
∴ Dividend = (12 × 35) = 420
Now, Dividend = 420,
Divisor = 21
Remainder = 0
∴ Quotient = $$\frac{420}{21}$$ = 20
