The difference of two numbers is 1415. On dividing the larger number by the smaller, we get 6 as quotient and the 15 as remainder. What is the smaller number ? Choose the correct choice from the following choices.
A) A)270  B) B)280  C) C)290  D) D)300  E) E)310
Let the smaller number be x. Then larger number = (x + 1415).   x + 1415 = 6x + 15   5x = 1400   x = 280   Smaller number = 280.   280)
