Question

Find the value of remainder when $465$ is divided by $8$.

• A. $58$
• B. $59$
• C. $1$
• D. $2$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $1$

$465÷8$ can be evaluated using long division method as:


From the above calculation, it is clear that $465÷8$ gives the remainder as $1$, i.e., (c.) is the correct option.

$\underset{–}{\text{Note:}}$
In $465÷8=58\text{R}1,$
$\bullet$ Dividend$=465$
$\bullet$ Divisor$=8$
$\bullet$ Quotient$=58$
$\bullet$ Remainder$=1$

And, $(\text{Divisor}\times \text{Quotient})+\text{Remainder}$
$=(8\times 58)+1$
$=464+1$
$=465=\text{Dividend}$

$\therefore \text{Dividend}=(\text{Divisor}\times \text{Quotient})+\text{Remainder}$
