Question

A certain number, when divided by 899, leaves a remainder 63. Find the remainder when the same number is divided by 29.

Answer 1

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

let no. be x

when x is divided by 899,it leaves a remainder 63

therefore, x=899y + 63

now, as we know that 899 is a multiple of 29,therefore, when (899y+63) will be divided by 29 , 899y will give remainder as 0 and 63 will give remainder as 5
