The difference of two numbers is 1365. On dividing the larger number by the smaller, we get 6 as quotient and the 15 as remainder. What is the smaller number ?
Options:
A .  240
B .  270
C .  295
D .  360
E .  None of these
Answer: Option B Let the smaller number be x Then larger number = (x + 1365) ∴ x + 1365 = 6x + 15 ⇒ 5x = 1350 ⇒ x = 270 ∴ Smaller number = 270
