Hello,
Can you please tell me if my approach is correct here?
If x/y has remainder 9, and x/y = 9.81, what is the value of y?
A) 11 1/9
B) 22 2/9
C) 33 1/3
D) 44 1/3
E) 55 1/5
OA: A
x/y has remainder 9 => x = (y . Q) + 9 ; where Q is the quotient
=> x/y = Q + 9/y - I
x/y = 9.81 => x/y = 9 + 81/100 - II
From I and II,
Q + 9/y = 9 + 81/100
=> 9/y = 81/100
=> 1/y = 9/100
=> y = 100/9
Hence, A
Thanks a lot,
Sri
