Answer:

             The value of Z is "7" and the number is "547".

Step-by-step explanation:

According given to given information

  • 54Z leaves remainder 2 when divided by 5  and
  • leaves remainder 1 when divided by 3

Only 542 and 547 are the numbers of this category that will leave remainder 2 when divided by 5

But

542 leaves a remainder of 2 also when divided by 3.

So 547 is the number that fulfills both the conditions of the question.

I hope it will help you.

Here is your answer
When 54Z is dividing by 5
 \frac{54z}{5}  = 108 \:  \: or109 \\
It means Z is 2 or 7 which leaves 2 as remainder

Now

 \frac{542}{3}  = 18 \: rem \:  \: 2 \\  \frac{547}{3}  = 182 \:  \: rem \: 1
Therefore
547 is the number which fulfill both condition
When dividing by 5 leave 2 remainder
When dividing by 3 leave 1 remainder

Hence

Z = 7 is your answer
