Question

If $233\times 121$ is divided by $5$. What is the remainder?

• A. $1$
• B. $2$
• C. $3$
• D. $4$

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

$3$

$233\times 121=28,193$
We know the divisibility rule for $5$: The last digit is $0$ or $5$.
So, here the last digits are not end with $0$ or $5$.
Hence subtract $3$ to the number we get $28,193-3=28,190$ is divisible by $5$.
Therefore, remainder is $3$.
