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

Correct Answer: 400

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.
