The difference of two numbers is 1365. On dividing the larger number by the smaller, we get 6 as quotient and the 15 as remainder. What is the smaller number ?
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
B
Let the smaller number be x
Then larger number = (x + 1365)
∴ x + 1365 = 6x + 15
⇒ 5x = 1350
⇒ x = 270
∴ Smaller number = 270
Then larger number = (x + 1365)
∴ x + 1365 = 6x + 15
⇒ 5x = 1350
⇒ x = 270
∴ Smaller number = 270
