Find the least number that should be subtracted from 1000 so that 35 divides
the difference exactly.
2000 so that 45 divides the sum​

Answer 1

We have to find the least number that should be subtracted from 1000 so that 35 divides the difference exactly.

For this, we shall first divide 1000 by 35.

On dividing 1000 by 35, we get

Remainder = 20

Remainder = 20So, 20 is the least number that should be subtracted from 1000 to make it exactly divisible by 35.
