Q:

The difference between two numbers is 3355. When the larger number is divided by the smaller one, the quotient is 6 and the remainder is 15. The smaller number and larger number respectively ?

A) 546, 3901 B) 415, 3770
C) 668, 4023 D) 404, 3759
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 668, 4023

Explanation:

Let the smaller number be k.
Then, larger number = (3355 + k)
Therefore 3355 + k = (6k + 15)
‹=› 5k = 3340
‹=› k = 668.

Therefore, the smaller number k = 668 and now the larger number = 3355+668 = 4023.
