Question

if 43p is divisible by 3, then what is the largest value P can take?

Answer 1

Answer:

8

Explanation:

As thedivisibility test of multiple of 3 is that to add all the numbers and then check whether it is a factor of 3 or not.

So, 4+3=7

Now we find what plus seven will give us a factor of 3.

7+8=15 and 7+7=14

So, as 15 is a multiple of 3 and 14 is not.

So, 43+8=51

To check:

5+1=6

Therefore, 8 is P
