following is a possible value for x?

Answer:

answer is 9 , because remainder is 0

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A) 24

B) 45

C) 59

D) 144

We use the hit and trial method first we check 45.

x=45

Divide 45 by 5 → the remainder is zero ✘

Divide 45 by 9 → the remainder is zero ✔

Now we check 144.

x=144

Divide 144 by 5 → the remainder is 4 ✔

Divide 144 by 9 → the remainder is zero ✔

So D is the correct Answer 144.

You can also check 24 and 59 but that will not help either.
