Step-by-step explanation:
Given:-
N is divided by 4, the remainder is 3
To find:-
What is the remainder when 2N is divided by 4?
Solution:-
Given number = N
Given divisor = 4
If N is divided by 4 then the remainder = 3
N = 4K + 3 --------(1)
Where K is a positive integer
On multiplying 2 both sides then
=> 2×N = 2×(4K+3)
=> 2N = 8K+6
=> 2N = 8K+4+2
=> 2N = (8K+4)+2
=> 2N = 4(2K+1) +2
=> 2N = 4M +2, Where M = 2K+1
The remainder = 2
If 2N is divided by 4 then the remainder = 2
Answer:-
The required remainder for the given problem is 2
Check:-
Consider a number 7
If 7 is divided by 4 then the remainder = 3
then 2×7 = 14 divided by 4 then the remainder = 2
Consider 11
If 11 is divided by 4 then the remainder is 3
then 2×11 = 22 is divided by 4 then the remainder is 2
