Detailed Solution

The given data is as follows.
The division of 55390 by 299 yields the remainder 75.
As we know, Dividend = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder  
We assume that the quotient is x.
We shall perform the the calculation in the following way.
Divisor × Quotient + Remainder = Dividend 299×x+75=55390 299x=5539075 299x=55315 x= 55315 299  
We shall now perform the long division in the following way.
299 185 55315 299 ¯ 2541 2392 ¯ 1495 1495 ¯ 0  
Hence, we get the value of x.
x= 55315 299 =185  
Therefore, the required quotient is 185 and, so the correct option is 1.
