Question

What is the largest multiple of 73 less than 1000?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

You may remember from long division that the quotient is the largest even multiple of the divisor; the remainder is the amount left over (and it is smaller than the divisor).

Now, 1000/7 is 142 with a remainder of 6.

7*142 is 994. That is the largest multiple of 7 less than 1000.

Answer 2

Answer:

949 is the largest multiple of 73 less than 1000.
