Let the least number be x.
Correct Option: D
Let the least number be x.
y = 5 × 1 + 3 = 8
x = 13 × 8 + 1 = 105
On dividing 105 by 65,
⇒ 105 = ( 65 × 1 ) + 40
Hence required remainder = 40

Given , Remainder = 28
Let the quotient be Q and the remainder be R. Then
According to question ,
Divisor = 7 Q = 3 RCorrect Option: D
Given , Remainder = 28
Let the quotient be Q and the remainder be R. Then
According to question ,
Divisor = 7 Q = 3 R∴ Q = 3 R = 3 × 28 = 12 7 7
⇒ Quotient = 12
∴ Divisor = 7 Q = 7 × 12 = 84
∴ Dividend = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder = 84 × 12 + 28 = 1008 + 28 = 1036
Hence the dividend is 1036.
- A number consists of two digits. If the number formed by interchanging the digits is added to the original number, the resulting number (i.e. the sum) must be divisible by

Let the number be 10a + b .
After interchanging the digits, the number obtained = 10b + a.Correct Option: A
Let the number be 10a + b .
After interchanging the digits, the number obtained = 10b + a.
According to the question,
Resulting number = 10a + b + 10b + a
Resulting number = 11a + 11b
Resulting number = 11 (a + b)
which is exactly divisible by 11.
- If two numbers are each divided by the same divisor, the remainders are respectively 3 and 4. If the sum of the two numbers be divided by the same divisor, the remainder is 2. The divisor is

Let two numbers are a and b and the divisor is d .
According to question ,∴ R1 = a = 3 d ∴ R2 = b = 4 d
Correct Option: C
Let two numbers are a and b and the divisor is d .
According to question ,∴ R1 = a = 3 d ∴ R2 = b = 4 d Now , R = 3 + 4 = 3 + 4 = 2 d d
⇒ 7 - 2 = 5 is divisible by d .
Required divisor = 5 { ∴ d > 4 }

Using the Binomial expansion , we have
(x + 1)n = xn + nc1 xn–1 +
nc2 xn– 2 + ..... + ncn–1 x +1
Here, each term except the last term contains x. Obviously, each term except the last term is exactly divisible by x.Correct Option: B
Using the Binomial expansion , we have
(x + 1)n = xn + nc1 xn–1 +
nc2 xn– 2 + ..... + ncn–1 x +1
Here, each term except the last term contains x. Obviously, each term except the last term is exactly divisible by x.
Following the same logic,
∴ 719 = (6 + 1)19 has each term except last term divisible by 6.
Hence, 719 + 2 when divided by 6 leaves remainder
⇒ 719 + 2 = 1 + 2 = 3
Hence the remainder is 3.
