A. In a division statement, the quotient is 4 and its remainder is 6.The sum of the dividend and the divisor is 66. Find the value ofthe dividend and the divisor. |
Answer» Dividend = 54; divisor = 12Step-by-step explanation: let the dividend , divisor , quotient and remainder be i , d , q and R respectively. Dividend = ( divisor × quotient ) + remainder According to question i = (d × 4) + 6 i = 4D + 6 4d + 6 = i 4d = i - 6 this will first equation According to question i + d = 66 d = 66 - i
this will second equation
From first and second equation
i - 6 = 4( 66 - i ) i - 6 = 264 - 4i i + 4i = 264 + 6 i = 270/5 i = 54if we put value of i in second equation d = 66 -54 d = 12hence dividend is equal to 54 and divisor is equal to 12. |
