Hey Mate,
We know that the no. of eggs is a multiple of 7
The units digit is 1 or 6, because of the 5
That leaves 21, 56, 91
the 3 tell us it has to be 91 eggs
Hope it helps

Answer:
She has 56 eggs .
Explanation : If she removes eggs from the basket 5 at a time then there is 1 egg left .As, (56 ÷ 5 ) the quotient is 11 and the remainder is 1,that means 1 egg is left.
That process goes the same when she removes 11 eggs at a time .
But in case of, when she removes 7 eggs at a time then the remainder is 0 ,that means there are no eggs left .
Hope it is helpful to you.
