  1. In a division sum, the divisor is 12 times the quotient and 5 times the remainder. If the remainder is 36, then the dividend is
    1. 2706
    2. 2796
    3. 2736
    4. 2826
Correct Option: C

Divisor = 5 × remainder
= 5 × 36 = 180
Again, Divisor = 12 × quotient
∴  180 = 12 × quotient

∴  Quotient =
180
= 15
12

∴  Dividend = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder
= 180 × 15 + 36
= 2700 + 36 = 2736
