Question

14. What is the least number which must
be added to a million, so that the sum
is divisible by 46.​

Answer 1

Answer:

We can solve this by following steps

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 1 million by 46, find the remainder (which turns out to be 6)

Therefore, we need to add 40 in order for the remainder when we divide the number by 46 to be 0, which means the number is divisible by 46.

Therefore, the least number which must be added to a million so that the sum is divisible by 46 is 40.

In fact, 1,000,04046=21,740

Answer 2

ANSWER:

There is no such number. The numbers to be added to 1 million (1M) can be negative. Adding -999,954 to 1,000,000 gives 46. But -46million is also divisible by 46, so adding -47 million to 1M gives -46 million which is divisible by 46. And you can keep looking at smaller and smaller negative numbers that are also divisible by 46, and get more and more candidates.

I hope this will be help you.
