Question : 1

A number when divided by 3 leaves a remainder 1. When the quotient is divided by 2, it leaves a remainder 1. What will be the remainder when the number is divided by 6?

a) 4

b) 3

c) 2

d) 5

Answer: (a)

The least number (dividend) x is obtained as follows :

3X  
2Y-1
 1-1

y = 2 × 1 + 1 = 3

x = 3 × 3 + 1 = 10

When we divide 10 by 6, the remainder = 4

Question : 2

A student was asked to multiply a number by $3/2$ but he divided that number by $3/2$. His result was 10 less than the correct answer. The number was :

a) 12

b) 10

c) 20

d) 15

Answer: (a)

Let the given number be x. Then,

(X x $3/2$)-(X ÷ $3/2$) = 10

⇒ $3/2$x - $2/3$ x = 10

⇒ = ${9x – 4x}/6$ = 10

⇒ 5x = 60 ⇒ x = 12

Question : 3

The expression $2^{6n} – 4^{2n}$, where n is a natural number is always divisible by

a) 18

b) 15

c) 48

d) 36

Answer: (c)

$2^{6n} – 4^{2n}$ = $(2^6)^n - (4^2)^n $

= $64^n – 16^n$

which is divisible by 64 –16= 48

Question : 4

When a number is divided by 36, the remainder is 19. What will be the remainder when the number is divided by 12 ?

a) 5

b) 7

c) 0

d) 3

Answer: (b)

Here, the first divisor (36) is exactly divisible by the second divisor (12).

∴ Required remainder = Remainder obtained after 19 is divided by 12 = 7

Question : 5

$9^6$ – 11 when divided by 8 would leave a remainder of :

a) 2

b) 0

c) 6

d) 4

Answer: (c)

If $(x ±1)^n$ is divided by x, the remainder is $(±1)^n$ ,

Now, $9^6$ – 11 == $(8 + 1)^6$ –11

When it is divided by 8,

remainder = + 1 – 11 = – 10

When – 10 is divided by 8,

remainder = – 2 i.e. – 2 + 8 = 6

Question : 6

A number when divided by 192 gives a remainder of 54. What remainder would be obtained on dividing the same number by 16 ?

a) 4

b) 2

c) 8

d) 6

Answer: (d)

Here, the first divisor 192 is a multiple of second divisor 16.

∴ Required remainder

= remainder obtained by dividing 54 by 16 = 6
