Since a/b = 32.16, the quotient is 32
Remainder is .16*x = 12
x = 12/.16 = 1200/16 = 300/4 = 75(Option D)
To check if our answer is correct, 75*32 + 12 = 2412.
This when divided by 75 gives us 32.16

This problem will be best solved using the remainder formula. Let’s first state the remainder formula:
When positive integer a is divided by positive integer b, if integer Q is the quotient and r is the remainder, then a/b = Q + r/b.
In this problem, we are given that when positive integer a is divided by positive integer b, the remainder is 12. So, we can say:
a/b = Q + 12/b
We also are given that a/b = 32.16. Using the remainder formula, we can say:
a/b = 32.16
a/b = 32 + 0.16
a/b = 32 + 16/100
Because Q is always an integer, we see that Q must be 32, and thus the remainder 12/b must be 16/100. We can now equate 12/b to 16/100 and determine the value of b.
12/b = 16/100
12/b = 4/25
12 x 25 = 4b
3 x 25 = b
75 = b
Answer: D
