ANSWER :
When n is divided by 4, it gives remainder 0.
Given :
A number divided by 12 gives 8 as remainder
To find :
All possible remainders if the same number is divided by 4
Solution :
Let the number be n = 12m + 8, m € Z
Case 1 :
When m = 0 ,
n = 12 × 0 + 8
n = 8
n/4 gives remainder (8/4) 0
Case 2 :
When m = 1,
n = 12 × 1 + 8
n = 20
n/4 gives remainder (20/4) 0
Case 3 :
When m = 2,
n = 12 × 2 + 8
n = 32
n/4 gives remainder (32/4) 0
Case 4 :
When m = 3,
n = 12 × 3 + 8
n = 44
n/4 gives remainder (44/4) 0
So, when n is divided by 4, it gives remainder 0.
