In a question on division, the divisor is 7 times the quotient and 3 times the remainder. If the remainder is 28, then the dividend is
-
- 588
- 784
- 823
- 1036
Correct Option: D
Given , Remainder = 28
Let the quotient be Q and the remainder be R. Then
According to question ,
Divisor = 7 Q = 3 R
| ∴ Q = | R = | × 28 = 12 | ||
| 7 | 7 |
⇒ Quotient = 12
∴ Divisor = 7 Q = 7 × 12 = 84
∴ Dividend = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder = 84 × 12 + 28 = 1008 + 28 = 1036
Hence the dividend is 1036.
