Correct answer: B

Let the quotient be q and the remainder be r = 36.

Given: Divisor = 12 × quotient = 12q

Also, divisor = 5 × remainder = 5 × 36 = 180

So, 12q = 180 → q = 15

Now, Dividend = (Divisor × Quotient) + Remainder

Dividend = 180 × 15 + 36 = 2700 + 36 = 2736

हिन्दी उत्तर:

माना भागफल q है और शेषफल r = 36 है।

दिया गया है: विभाजक = 12 × भागफल = 12q

साथ ही, विभाजक = 5 × शेषफल = 5 × 36 = 180

इसलिए, 12q = 180 → q = 15

अब, भाज्य = (विभाजक × भागफल) + शेषफल

भाज्य = 180 × 15 + 36 = 2700 + 36 = 2736
