    A 1604 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 1250 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 1055 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 1542 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Let the cost price of article ‘A’ = Rs. ‘x’ = selling price of article ‘B’

    Selling price of article ‘A’ = 1.50 × x = Rs. ‘1.5x’

    So, cost price of article ‘B’ = (4/15) × 1.5x = Rs. ‘0.4x’

    ATQ,

    Divisor = 4 × 5 = 20

    Quotient = 20 × (100/25) = 80

    So, dividend = Quotient × Divisor + Remainder = 80 × 20 + 4 = 1604
