Question

A number when divided by 117 leaves 17 as remainder. if the same number is divided by 13, the remainder obtained is

Answer 1

Let the number be 'N'
N/117 = Remainder (17)
N/13 = Remainder ??

rem(17)/13 = Remainder 4.
Hence N/13 = remainder (4)

Illustration:
N = Quotient*117 + 17... [17 is the remainder]
N/13 = (Quotient*117)/13 + 17/13
Since 117 is a multiple of '13', the first part will be perfectly divisible. Hence it is only necessary to find the remainder of 17/13 which equals 4.

Hence the remainder is '4'.
