A number divided by 372 leaves a remainder of 65.what is the remainder when the same number is divided by 31?
Answers
Let the number be x
By Euclid's division lemma
x=143q+31 where q is quotient
=143q+26+5
x=13 (11q+2)+5
x=13p+5 where p is quotient of form 11q+2
.’. 5 is the remainder
SOLUTION
GIVEN
A number divided by 372 leaves a remainder of 65
TO DETERMINE
The remainder when the same number is divided by 31
EVALUATION
Here it is given that a number divided by 372 leaves a remainder of 65
Then Divisor = 372 , remainder = 65
Let quotient = m
The the number
= Divisor × Quotient + Reminder
= 372m + 65
Now we divide the number by 31
372 is completely divisible by 31
∴ 372m is completely divisible by 31
Again if we divide 65 by 31 , the Remainder = 3
Hence the required Remainder = 3
