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:

380

395

400

425

Answer : Option C

Explanation :

Let the numbers be x and y.

Then, xy = 9375 and $\frac { X } { Y }$ =15

$\frac { XY } { (X/Y) }$ = $\frac { 9375 } { 15 }$

y² = 625.

y = 25.

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

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