Step-by-step explanation:
let the number be 7x +4 where x=any positive integer (1,2,3............)
According to given question, (7x+4)^2= (7x)^2+ 4^2+ 2*7*4
=49x^2+ 16+ 56=49x^2+72
since 49 is divisible by 7, 49x^2 is also divisible by 7.
Then only 72 remain.
72 when divided by 7 gives remainder 2.
Hence 49x^2 + 72 when divided by 7 gives remainder 2.
so, correct answer is 2.
