Question

On dividing a number by 56, we get 29 as remainder. On dividing the same  number by 8. what will be the    remainder ?


Options:
A .  4
B .  5
C .  6
D .  7
Answer: Option B

Let `x` be the number & y be the   quotient. Then,

        `x` = 56 `xx`  y + 29 = ( 8 x 7y) + (8 x 3 ) + 5 = 8 x (7y + 3) + 5.

` therefore` Required remainder = 5.
