if 31x is a multiple of 11 where x is a digit what is the value of x?
Answers
Value can be any multiple of 11
SOLUTION
GIVEN
31x is a multiple of 11 where x is a digit
TO DETERMINE
The value of x
EVALUATION
We know that A number is divisible by 11 if the sum of the digits in the odd places and the sum of the digits in the even places difference is a multiple of 11 or zero.
Now the sum of the digits in the odd places
= 3 + x
Again the sum of the digits in the even places
= 1
The difference
= 3 + x - 1
= x + 2
Now by the rule x + 2 is divisible by 11
∴ x = 9
FINAL ANSWER
The value of x = 9
