Given : x mod 3=1 and x mod 7=4
To Find : which of these is the value of x:
a). 25.
b). 35.
c). 28
d). 67
Solution:
x mod 3=1 and x mod 7=4
a mod b = c => when a divided by b the remainder is c
Hence a = bq + c
x mod 3=1
=> x = 3m + 1
x mod 7=4
=> x = 7n + 4
3m + 1 = 7n + 4
=> 3m - 3 = 7n
=> 3(m - 1) = 7n
Hence least possible value of n = 3
least possible value of m = 8
x = 3m + 1 = 3*8 + 1 = 25
x = 7n + 4 = 7*3 + 4 = 25
Hence 25 can be the value of x
or all options can be checked
25 = 8 * 3 + 1 , 25 = 7* 3 + 4
35 = 11* 3 + 2 Hence remainder is not 1
28 = 7 * 4 Hence remainder is not 4
67 = 9 * 7 + 2 Hence remainder is not 4
So only correct option is option a ) 25
