A. ST
B. S + V
C. ST + V
D. T(S + V)
E. T(S-V)

Bunuel · Answer

Positive integer  a  divided by positive integer  d  yields a reminder of  r  can always be expressed as  a=qd+r , where  q  is called a quotient and  r  is called a remainder, note here that  0\leq{r}<d  (remainder is non-negative integer and always less than divisor).

So we are given that:  n=st+v .

Answer: C.

Using the rule dividend = Quotient * divisor + remainder => C is correct

(n-v)/t = s
n-v = ts
n = ts +v

Ans:C

ScottTargetTestPrep · Answer

We can create the expression:

N/T= S + V/T

Multiplying by T, we have:

N = ST + V

Answer: C

MathRevolution · Answer

When N is divided by T, the quotient is S and the remainder is V. Then, expressions for N is:

When 10(N) is divided by 6(T), the quotient is 1(S) and the remainder is 4(V). Then, expressions for N(10) is 10 = 6 * 1 + 4

=> N(10) = 6(T) * 1(S) + 4(V): N = T * S + V

Answer C

Theory: Dividend = Divisor*Quotient + Remainder

When N is divided by T, the quotient is S and the remainder is V 
N -> Dividend
T -> Divisor
S -> Quotient
V -> Remainder
=> N = T*S + V
=> N = TS + V = ST + V

So,  Answer will be C 
Hope it helps!
