 First we will proceed to find the dividend(m)

we ; ; will ; ; use ; ; the ; ;; ;first ; ;; ;equation;:fracm12=35     

m=35*12=420

thus, 420 is the dividend.

correct; quotient:= frac42021=20

So, correct quotient is 20

SHORT CUT METHOD

(correct ;;quotient) *21=35*12

correct ;;quotient =frac35*1221=20
