Question

An number when divided successively by 4 and 5 leaves remainder 1 and 4 respectively when it is successively divided by 5 and 4 , then find the respective remainder

Answer 1

We can easily pin point this number if the quotient obtained is 4 itself. The remainder will be 4 in that case. Hence 17 satisfies the given condition.

When you divide 17 by 5, you get 2 remainder and 3 quotient. When you divide 3 by 4, you get 3 remainder.
