    The divisor is 40% of the quotient and 2 times the

    remainder. If the remainder is 6, then what is the dividend?
    A 366 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 755 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 455 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 542 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’ = 1.70 × x = Rs. ‘1.7x’

    So, cost price of article ‘B’ = (2/17) × 1.7x = Rs. ‘0.2x’

    ATQ,

    Divisor = 6 × 2 = 12

    Quotient = 12 × (100/40) = 30

    So, dividend = Quotient × Divisor + Remainder = 30 × 12 + 6 = 366
