Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Key formula: Dividend = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder
Given Remainder = 46.
Divisor = 5 × Remainder = 5 × 46 = 230.
Also Divisor = 10 × Quotient, so 10 × Quotient = 230 ⇒ Quotient = 23.
Compute Dividend = 230 × 23 + 46 = (230 × 20) + (230 × 3) + 46 = 4600 + 690 + 46 = 5336.
Answer: 5336
