Question

what are the possible values of remainder r when a positive integer iw divided by 3

Answer 1

SOLUTION:
The given statement the values of remainder r ,when a positive integer a is divided by 3,are 0 and 1 only is FALSE. According to Euclid's division Lemma, a = b q+ r

Here, b = 3

a = 3 q + r,

Where 0 ≤ r < 3 and r is an integer.

Therefore , the values of r can be zero ( 0 ) , one ( 1 ) or two ( 2 ).

Answer 2

Hey"

Here is your answer.

By euclid' division lemma

a=bq+r
a=3q+r 'where r =0,1,2.

Hope it is helpful to you.
