If a number is divided by 3, the remainder will be 2. If the number is added by 5 and then divided by 3, then what will be the remainder?1. 12. 23. 04. 3

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : 1

Given:

A number is divided by 3, the remainder will be 2

Calculation:

let the number be X

X = 3K + 2

According to question

X + 5 = 3K + 2 + 5

⇒X + 5 = 3K + 7

⇒X + 5 = 3K + 6 + 1

⇒X + 5 = 3(K + 2) + 1

Now,

3(K + 2) type number is definitely divisible by 3 so the remainder will be 1
