On dividing a number by 56, we get 29 as remainder. On dividing the same number by 8, what will be the remainder ?
Answer: Option
Explanation:
Formula: (Divisor*Quotient) + Remainder = Dividend.
Soln:
(56*Q)+29 = D -------(1)
D%8 = R -------------(2)
From equation(2),
((56*Q)+29)%8 = R.
=> Assume Q = 1.
=> (56+29)%8 = R.
=> 85%8 = R
=> 5 = R.

As 56 is divisible by 8
So we have remainder 29 when divisible by 56
So 29/8=5
So we have remainder 29 when divisible by 56
So 29/8=5

N=56*K+29.
By divide 8.
8*7*k+8*3+5.
8(7k+8)+5.
Remainder = 5 dividing 8.
By divide 8.
8*7*k+8*3+5.
8(7k+8)+5.
Remainder = 5 dividing 8.

56 is divided by 8 completely.
So remainder divided by 8(29/8) = 5.
Simple.
So remainder divided by 8(29/8) = 5.
Simple.

x = 56p+29 => (8*7p+8*3)+5.
=> 8(7p+3)+5.
So remainder is 5.
=> 8(7p+3)+5.
So remainder is 5.

Number = x.
x = 56 + 29 = 85.
So,
= 85/8 = 10.5.
Remainder is 5.
x = 56 + 29 = 85.
So,
= 85/8 = 10.5.
Remainder is 5.

Assume that the num is 56+29=85.
Now divide, 85/8.
Remainder is 5.
Now divide, 85/8.
Remainder is 5.
