Question

17=6×2+5 is compared with euclids division lemma a=bq+r ,then which number is representing the remainder​

Answer 1

Answer:  The number that represents the remainder is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that 17 = 6×2 + 5 is compared with Euclid's division lemma a = bq + r.

We are to select the number that represents the remainder.

We know that

while writing Euclid's division algorithm a = bq + r,

a stands for the dividend,

b stands for the divisor, q stands for the quotient

and

r stands for the remainder.

So, in 17 = 6×2 + 5, 5 is the remainder.

Thus, the number that represents the remainder is 5.
