Correct Answer: 1000
Solution : Given: A divisor is 15 times the quotient and 3 times the remainder. The remainder is 40. The divisor = 3 × 40 = 120 We know that Dividend = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder. According to the question, Divisor = 15 times the quotient ⇒ 120 = 15 × quotient ⇒ Quotient = 8 Dividend = 120 × 8 + 40 ⇒ Dividend = 960 + 40 = 1000. Hence, the correct answer is 1000.
