-  A number when divided by 91 gives a remainder 17. When the same number is divided by 13, the remainder will be :
- 
                        View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum Here, the first divisor (91) is a multiple of second divisor (13). Correct Option: BHere, the first divisor (91) is a multiple of second divisor (13). 
 ∴ Required remainder = Remainder obtained on dividing 17 by 13
 ⇒ 17 = ( 13 × 1 ) + 4
 Hence Required remainder = 4
-  When an integer K is divided by 3, the remainder is 1, and when K + 1 is divided by 5, the remainder is 0. Of the following, a possible value of K is

-  47 is added to the product of 71 and an unknown number. The new number is divisible by 7 giving the quotient 98. The unknown number is a multiple of
- 
                        View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum Let the unknown number be p. 
 ∴ 71 × p + 47 = 98 × 7
 ⇒ 71p = 686 – 47 = 639Correct Option: DLet the unknown number be p. 
 ∴ 71 × p + 47 = 98 × 7
 ⇒ 71p = 686 – 47 = 639
 ⇒ p =639 = 9 = 3 × 3 71 
 Thus , The unknown number is a multiple of 3 .
-  (461 + 462 + 463) is divisible by
- 
                        View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum The Expression 461 + 462 + 463 = 461 (1 + 4 + 42) Correct Option: AThe Expression 461 + 462 + 463 = 461 (1 + 4 + 42) 
 = 461 × 21 which is divisible by 3.
 Hence , the given expression is divisible by 3 .
-  The expression 26n – 42n, where n is a natural number is always divisible by
- 
                        View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum The given expression 26n − 42n = (26)n − (42)n Correct Option: DThe expression 26n − 42n = (26)n − (42)n 
 = 64n − 16n
 which is divisible by 64 –16= 48
 Therefore required answer is 48 .
