Solution

The correct option is D 4
Total number of passengers = 1957
There are 9 compartments in the train.

To find the number of passengers who will not be able to board the train, we have to find the remainder of 1957÷9.


The quotient is 217 and the remainder is 4.
Hence, 4 passengers will not be able to board the train due to full occupancy.
