    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) 395      

    B)  380

    C)  400     

    D)  425

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Let the numbers be x and y and x is greater than y. As given,           \[xy=9375\]                        ...(i) Again,               \[\frac{x}{y}=15\] From Eq. (i), \[15y\times y=9375\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[{{y}^{2}}=\frac{9375}{15}=625\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[y=\sqrt{625}=25\] \[\therefore \]      \[x=15y=15\times 25=375\] \[\therefore \]      \[x+y=375+25=400\]
