    Question

    When a number is divided by 45, it leaves a remainder of 28. The remainder when the same number is divided by 15 is:

    A.

    13

    B.

    10

    C.

    12

    D.

    11

    Correct option is A

    Given:
    A number N is divided by 45, Leaves the remainder = 28
    Formula Used:
    => N = D × Q + R
    Solution:
    According to the given conditions,
    => N = 45 × Q + 28
    On dividing N by 15,
    => N15 \frac N{15}​ = 45 × Q + 2815\frac {28}{15}​​
    Substitute Q = 1, 2, 3, ..... n
    Now substitute Q = 1 we get;
    =>N15=45×1+2815=> \frac N{15} = 45 × 1 + \frac{28}{15}​​
    => N = 7315\frac{73}{15}​​
    Hence dividing by 15 will leave the remainder
    = 13
