A number when divided by 18 leaves a remainder 2. what is the remainder when the same number is divided by 6
Answers
Answer:-
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose x is divided by 18 then it gives the remainder 2
It means
x = (18 × n) + 2 , where n is a natural number.
So here 18 - Divisor ; n - quotient : remainder - 2
Now coming back to that equation, 18 can be written as 6 × 3,
If we divide x by 6 then it gives the same remainder because 6 is the multiple of 18
18 = 6 × 3
X = 6 × 3 × n+2
Hence, the answer is 2.
for instance the number is
18+2=20
if 20 is divided by 6 the remainder will be 2.
take another example...
18*2=36
add remainder 2 here..i.e.38
if it's divided by 6 clearly we can say that the same remainder...2 we can get...
And also we can say that 18 is the multiple of 6.
when 18 divides...what is the remainder we can get that's only the remainder when we divide by 6.
