Dividing the reminder 47 by 18 we get 11 as the remainder.

Answer 2

Answer:

The remainder we obtained by dividing 18 is 11.

To find:

To find the remainder of a certain number that is divided by 18, if it will leave a remainder of 47 by dividing the certain number by 342.

Solution:

Let the dividend=Divisor + remainder

Divisor=342

Remainder=47

Dividend =Divisor + remainder

=342+47

=389

Dividing the 389 by 342 will get 47 as remainder.

Again 342 is divided by 18 then will get the remainder is

$=\frac{342}{18}=19$

Hence the number 342 is also divisible by 18

Hence the reminder 47 is divided by 18 will get remainder is

$= \frac {47}{18} =11$

So the reminder is 11.
