The remainder when 3n + 2 is divided by 3 is 2
Given :
A positive number 'n' when divided by 9 leaves a remainder 6
To find :
The remainder when 3n + 2 is divided by 3
Solution :
Step 1 of 2 :
Find the number n
Here it is given that the positive number 'n' when divided by 9 leaves a remainder 6
Dividend = n
Divisor = 9
Remainder = 6
Let quotient = k
The number
= n
= Dividend
= Divisor × Quotient + Remainder
= (9 × k) + 6
= 9k + 6
Step 2 of 2 :
Find the required number
3n + 2
= 3(9k + 6) + 2
= 27k + 18 + 2
= 27k + 20
= 27k + 18 + 2
= 3(9k + 6) + 2
Now , 3(9k + 6) is completely divisible by 3
∴ 2 is the remainder when 3(9k + 6) + 2 is divided by 3
∴ 2 is the remainder when 3n + 2 is divided by 3
Hence the remainder when 3n + 2 is divided by 3 is 2
