When a positive integer n is divided by 9, the remainder is 4. What is the remainder when (3n2 + 2n2 + 5n) is divided by 9?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. 1.

Let the value of n be 13.

Now, 3n2 + 2n2 + 5n

⇒ 5n2 + 5n

⇒ 5(169) + 5(13) = 910

Dividing 910 by 9, remainder = 1
