A three-digit number is divided by 17 and leaves 5 as remainder. The sum of the digits of the divisible number is 7. If tenth digit of divisible number is 75% of its hundred’s digit and its hundred’s digit is 4 more than its unit digit, then what is the quotient?
A three-digit number is divided by 17 and leaves 5 as remainder. The sum of the digits of the divisible number is 7. If tenth digit of divisible number is 75% of its hundred’s digit and its hundred’s digit is 4 more than its unit digit, then what is the quotient? Correct Answer 25
Let the divisible number = 100x + 10y + z
Given,
x + y + z = 7 ---- (1)
Also given,
y = x × 75/100 = 3x/4 ---- (2)
And,
x – z = 4 ---- (3)
From equations (1), (2) and (3) :
x + (3x/4) + (x – 4) = 7
2x + 3x/4 = 11
x = 4, y = 3 and z = 0
The divisible number = 100 × 4 + 10 × 3 + 0 = 430
The quotient = (430 – 5)/17 = 25
