11. | On dividing a number by 357, we get 39 as remainder. On dividing the same number 17, what will be the remainder ? | |
A. | 0 | |
B. | 3 | |
C. | 5 | |
D. | 11 | |
Answer: Option C | |
Explanation: | |
Let x be the number and y be the quotient. Then, x = 357 x y + 39 = (17 x 21 x y) + (17 x 2) + 5 = 17 x (21y + 2) + 5) Required remainder = 5. |
