Correct Answer: 6480


Solution : Given: Divisor $= 4 ×$ Quotient $= 2 ×$ Remainder, Remainder $= 80$
Divisor $= 2 × 80 = 160$
And,
Divisor $= 4 ×$ Quotient
$160 = 4 ×$ Quotient
Quotient $= \frac{160}{4} = 40$
Let the dividend be $x$.
We know, Dividend $=$ Divisor $×$ Quotient $+$ Remainder
⇒ $x = 160 × 40 + 80$
⇒ $x= 6400 + 80$
⇒$x = 6480$
Hence, the correct answer is $6480$.
