Question

2361 = ( 784 $\times$ Q ) + R
Find the value of Q and R.

• A. 7, 366
• B. 758, 16
• C. 16, 758
• D. 18, 758

Answer 1

The correct option is D

18, 758

Euclid's division lemma:

Let a and b are two positive integers, then there exist unique integers q and r such that
a = bq + r, where 0 $\le$ r < b.

$\therefore$ 2361 = 784 $\times$ 3 + 9
$\Rightarrow$ Quotient, q = 3 and remainder, r = 9
