    According to question ,
    The least number X in this case will be determined as follows:
    Y = 5 × 1 + 4 = 9

    X = 4 × Y + 1 = 4 × 9 + 1 = 37
    Now,

    Correct Option: C

    According to question ,
    The least number X in this case will be determined as follows:
    Y = 5 × 1 + 4 = 9

    X = 4 × Y + 1 = 4 × 9 + 1 = 37
    Now,

    Hence, the respective remainders are 2, 3.

    Let the original number of friends be x.


    ∴ 
    108
    +
    108
    = 3
    x − 3x

    ⇒  108
    x − x + 3
    = 3
    x(x − 3)

    ⇒  x (x – 3) = 108
    ⇒  x2 – 3x – 108 = 0
    ⇒  x2 –12 x + 9x –108 = 0
    ⇒  (x– 12) + 9 (x – 12) = 0
    ⇒  (x – 12) (x + 9) = 0
    ⇒  x = 12 as x ≠ – 9
    ∴  The number of friends who attended the picnic
    = 12 – 3 = 9

    Correct Option: C

    Let the original number of friends be x.


    ∴ 
    108
    +
    108
    = 3
    x − 3x

    ⇒  108
    x − x + 3
    = 3
    x(x − 3)

    ⇒  x (x – 3) = 108
    ⇒  x2 – 3x – 108 = 0
    ⇒  x2 –12 x + 9x –108 = 0
    ⇒  (x– 12) + 9 (x – 12) = 0
    ⇒  (x – 12) (x + 9) = 0
    ⇒  x = 12 as x ≠ – 9
    ∴  The number of friends who attended the picnic
    = 12 – 3 = 9

    Let the number be x.
    ∴  According to question,
    2x + 20 = 8x – 4
    or 8x – 2x = 20 + 4
    or 6x = 24
    ∴  x = 4

    Correct Option: C

    Let the number be x.
    ∴  According to question,
    2x + 20 = 8x – 4
    or 8x – 2x = 20 + 4
    or 6x = 24
    ∴  x = 4
