A number when divided by 119 leaves 19 as remainder if the same number is divided by 17 the remainder obtained. a) 2 b) 3 c) 1 d) 5

Answer»

Correct option: (a) 2

Explanation:

Let, the Number = x 

Quotient = q 

Divisor = (d) = 119 

Remainder = (r) = 19 

X = (d x q) + r 

X = (119 x q) +19

Same number when divided by "17" 

x = (17 x 7 x q) + 17 + 2

= 17 (7q + 1) + 2 

Remainder is "2"
