Q. x and y no. when divided by 6 leaves remainder 4 and 5 respectively. so x+y when divided by 6 leaves remainder -
a)6
b)2
c)data insufficiency
d)none of the above
Read Solution (Total 12)
-
- x=6m+4
y=6n+5
x+y=(6m+4)+(6n+5)=6(m+n)+9 = 6(m+n+1)+ 3
so,when (x+y)is divided by 6 gives remainder = 3
d)none of the above - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(71) No(1)
- d)none of the above
4+5 = 9, 9 when divided by 6 gives remainder as 3 - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(14) No(2)
- the values of x and y might be 10&11.
so 10+11=21
21 divide by 6 which gives remainder as 3.but it is not present.so ans is
D)none of the above - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(7) No(1)
- simple
remender=rem x+rem y=4+5=9
again didide 6 rem=3 ans
ans-3 - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(1)
- let say value of x=10 and y=11,x+y=21 and 21/6 leaves remainder 3 so answer is: d)none of the above

- A simple solution :
consider 28 and 29 [when divided leaves remainders 4 and 5 ]
(28+29) / 6 = 3 [this logic works for any 4 and 5 remainders of 6 you imagined] - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- x/6=4 i.e x=24, y/6=5 i.e y=30
thn (x+y)/6=54/6 leaves rem 0..
so ans s none - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(2)
- answer is 2

- ANS IS 3 Divide and concerent formula
None of theabove - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- X=Q*6+4,
Y=Q*6+5,
X+Y=(4+5)/6=3 REMINDER - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- let x=10 when divided by 6 remainder will be 4
y=11/6=5
x+y=21/6=3
d)none of above - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- d)none of the above
4+5 = 9, 9 when divided by 6 gives remainder as 3 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
