Question

Which least no should be added to 1000 so that 53 divides the sum exactly?

Answer 1

Hi friend!

Seven is the least number that should be added to 1000 to get 1007 which when divided by by 53, we get 19 as quotient.

I hope this will help you ;)

Answer 2

Given:

1000 and 53

To prove

add value=?

Solution:

In the given question if we divide the value that is 1000 by 53 it will give the value that is: 18.86

To remove this decimal value we should add some value in 1000. by hit and trial method if we add value that is 7 in 1000 it will become 1007 which is completely divisible by 53 and give the vale that is: 19.

That's why the added value is: 7
