YESPYQ · Accepted Answer

Correct answer: b) 816. As we know, Divided = Divisor × quotient + remainder Divided = 17 × 2 + 0 Divided = 34 Again, Divided = Divisor × quotient + remainder Divided = 34 × 11 + 17 Divided = 374 + 17 = 391 Again, Divided = Divisor × quotient + remainder Divided = 391 × 1 + 34 Divided = 391 + 34 = 425 The two numbers are 425 and 391 Sum of two numbers = 425 + 391 = 816 Hence, Option B is the correct answer.
