b) cannot be determined
c) 3
d) 42 (solution:c)

- answer is el3
by using dividend= divisor×quotient+remainder
eqn 1 is D×q1+8=N
eqn2 is 3D×q2+21=N
eqn1×3-eqn2 gives
3D×q+3=2N
so remainder is 3 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(13) No(0)
- answer is 42.

- supposingly N is the number, Q being the quotient
N=D x Q+8--------------------------------eqn1
N=3D x Q+21
twice the number..
2N=3D x 2Q+ 2 x 21
hence 42 is the remainder - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(3)
