Answer 1

Answer:

hmm

Step-by-step explanation:

How can we find the least number which should be subtracted from 27583 so that the difference is exactly divisible by 35?

Well, try dividing 27583 by 35 to begin with and find out how much you have left over:

27583 / 35 = 788.085714286

So, we know that 35 goes into 27583 at least 788 times evenly. So then we need to find out how much 788 times 35 is.

788 x 35 = 27580

That’s now our number that is evenly divided by 35. So what’s the difference between 27583 and 27580?

27583 - 27580 = 3

So, that’s you’re answer - 3. You need to subtract 3 from 27583 to become evenly divisible by 35.
