1 . In the equation below, a, b, q, r are integers, 0≤r<b, a is a multiple of 3 and b=9. a=b q+r Which of the following forms represent a?
Answers
SOLUTION
TO CHOOSE THE CORRECT OPTION
In the equation below, a, b, r are integers, O≤r<b, a is a multiple of 3 and b=9.
a=bq+r
Which of the following forms represent a
Option 1 : Only 9q and 9q+3, as only these forms when divided by 3 gives r=0.
Option 2: Only 9q+1 and 9q+4, as only these forms when divided by 3 gives r = 1.
Option 3: Only 9q,9q+3, and 9q+6. as only these forms when divided by 3 gives r=0.
Option 4: Only 9q+1, 9q+4, and 9q+7, as only these forms when divided by 3 gives r=1.
EVALUATION
Here it is given that a, b, r are integers, 0≤r<b, a is a multiple of 3 and b=9.
Since a is a multiple of 3
Let a = 3m
Thus a=bq+r gives
3m = 9q + r - - - - - - (1)
Since 0 ≤ r < b and b = 9
We have 0 ≤ r < 9
So r = 0 , 1 , 2 , 3 ,..., 8
From Equation 1 we get
r = 0 , 3 , 6
So a is of the form 9q,9q+3, and 9q+6
Hence Only 9q,9q+3, and 9q+6. as only these forms when divided by 3 gives r = 0
FINAL ANSWER
Hence the correct option is
Option 3: Only 9q,9q+3, and 9q+6. as only these forms when divided by 3 gives r=0
