A difference between two numbers is 1365, when larger number is divided by the
smaller one, the quotient is 6 and the remainder is 15. What is the smaller number?
Let the smaller number be denoted by $$x$$
The bigger number can be $$6x+15$$
Bigger number - smaller number = ($$6x+15$$) - ($$x$$)
$$5x+15$$ = 1365
$$5x$$ = 1350
$$x$$ = 270
