Question: The product of two numbers is 9375 and the quotient, when the larger one is divided by the smaller, is 15. The sum of the numbers is:

[A].

380

[B].

395

[C].

400

[D].

425

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let the numbers be x and y.

Then, xy = 9375 and	x	= 15.
	y

xy	=	9375
(x/y)		15

y2 = 625.

y = 25.

x = 15y = (15 x 25) = 375.

Sum of the numbers = x + y = 375 + 25 = 400.
