If (172826 - 2156) is divided by 16, what will be the remainder?

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : 0

Given:

Dividend = (172826 - 2156)

Divisor = 16

Concept Used:

Dividend = (divisor × quotient) + remainder 

Calculation:

(172826 - 2156) = (123×(26) - 2156)/24

⇒ (123×(26) - 2156)/24 = (2(6 × 26) × 3(3 × 26) - 2156) /24

⇒ (2(6 × 26) × 3(3 × 26) - 2156) /24 = 2156(378 - 1)/24

⇒ 2156(378 - 1)/2= 2(156 -4)(378 - 1) = 2(152)(378 - 1)

The divisor 16 completely divides the number (172826 - 2156), so remainder is 0

∴ (172826 - 2156) is divided by 16, the remainder is 0
