 Find the remainder: (1713 − 21) ÷ 18

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 14.

(1713 − 21) ÷ 18

= (18 - 1)13/18 - (21/18)

The remainder will be (- 1)13 from the first fraction and 3 from the second fraction.

Remainder as whole = - 1 - 3 = - 4 (Negative value)

Remainder = 18 - 4 = 14

Therefore, the remainder is 14.
