a) 2
b) 5
c) 3
d) 0
Read Solution (Total 15)
-
- 9 div 6=3 rem
3*11=33
33/6 =3 rem
3*22=66
66/6= 0rem
99/6= 3 rem
so 3 and 0 ill be rem( when even no. comes rem ill be 0 else 3)

- 1-IF YOU WILL TAKE COMMON 9 FROM THE EXPRESSION , IT WILL BE
9{1+1+9+9^2+....9^(N-1)}
2-IF WE WILL DIVIDE 6 FROM THE ABOVE EXPRESSION IT WILL GIVE 3 AS REMINDER .
9/6, REM = 3
3- 3 WILL BE THE ANSWER .
*DOESNT DEPEND ON VALUE OF N - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(11) No(6)
- remainder will be 3
as no matter what power of 9 is...if it is divided by 6 , the remainder will be 3 only - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(7) No(9)
- answer will be 3. because sum of power of 9 upto even powers is divisible by 6
and upto odd powers it will give the remainder 3 everytime
- 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(0)
- everyone is wrong here.
correct answer is 5.
9^1/6 = 3
9^2/6 = 1
likewise 9^odd/6 = 3
9^even/6 = 1
3*6+ 1*5 = 23/6 = rem = 5 - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(4)
- =9/6+(9^1+9^2+....9^11*n)/6
=9/6+3/6
then =12/6=0 - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(3)
- It can be both 3 and 0 . If n=11 then its (9+ 3*11) /6 gives 0 remainder if n=22 then it becomes ( 9+ 3*22)/6 gives 3 as remainder
- 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- Taking n as 11 and proceeding further, step wise
9^11 = 31381059609
9^10 = 3486784401
9^9 = 387420489
9^8 = 43046721
9^7 = 4782969
9^6 = 531441
9^5 = 59049
9^4 = 6561
9^3 = 729
9^2= 81
9^1 = 9
+ 9

Now dividing these number by 6 we get remainder as 5.
So, the correct answe is b) 5 - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(7)
- correct answer is 3.
- 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(1)
- for odd multiples of 11 the answer is 3 and for even multiples of 11 ans is 0 so here the answer as per question is cant be determined as we dont know whether the power is even or odd multiple
- 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- in 1 to 10 the odd no is 5
11 to 20 odd no. is 5
similarly 90 to 100 odd no is 5
so total no. is up to 100 is 50
so 50 *100=5000 - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(1)
- can not be determined bcz here 11 is multiple .because here we can take the value of n is even or odd .
- 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(1)
- Use calculator Ans will be 3
- 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 9+9^1+9^2...........+9^n=9+9(9^11-1)/9-1 formula to sum of gp series
9+9(9^11-1)/9-1 =9(1+9^11-1)/8
9*9^11/8
now we r taking 6 the is given in the question
=9*9^11/6*8
=3*9^11/16
=27*9^10/16
27/16=11 rem
9^10/16=10 rem
11+10=21/16=5
5 will be the answer - 6 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- If we divide numerator and denominator by 3 then we will get only 2 in denominator... which means only 0,1 can be remainder... so i think 0 should be the answer.
