Q. A number when divided by 53 gives 34 as quotient and 21 as remainder. Then the number is:
(A) 1800
(B) 1924
(C) 1823
(D) 1723
Question from UPPSC Prelims CSAT 2024
Correct Answer: (C) 1823.
Explanation:
To find the number, we can use the formula:
Number = (Divisor * Quotient) + Remainder
Here, the divisor is 53, the quotient is 34, and the remainder is 21.
Now, substituting the values:
Number = (53 * 34) + 21 = 1802 + 21 = 1823
The answer is (C) 1823.
