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.

Simple way.
No need to do all this.
A number is divided by 56 and remainder was 29.
So 56+29=85.
Again 85/8 the remainder is 5 (answer).

A number whrn divided by a certain division, left a remainder of 8. When the same number was multiplied by 12 & then divided by the same divisor, the remainder is 12. How many are such divisors?

Number = 56x + 29 ( μ since the number gives 29 as remainder on dividing by 56).
= (7 * 8 * x) + (3 * 8) + 5.
Hence, if the number is divided by 8, we will get 5 as remainder.
= (7 * 8 * x) + (3 * 8) + 5.
Hence, if the number is divided by 8, we will get 5 as remainder.

Can anybody tell me how to solve this and what is the answer?
