Answer : (B) 7
Steps :
When divided by 48,31 is the remainder. So let the number be 48x + 31.
48x+31
(24×2x) + (24+7)
24(2x+1) + 7
This number when divided by 24 we get 2x+1 as quotient and 7 as remainder.
We can Also check by taking the number as 48+31= 79..Now dividing 79 by 24 we get remainder 7
