    A 1056 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 1650 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 3240 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 1065 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the quotient be x Divisor = 4 × quotient = 4x
    Divisor = 2 × remainder = 2 × 32 = 64
    So, 4x = 64 → x = 16

    Now use the division formula:
    Dividend = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder
    = 64 × 16 + 32
    = 1024 + 32
    = 1056
