प्रश्न
When the positive integers a, b and c are divided by 13, the respective remainders are 9, 7 and 10. Show that a + b + c is divisible by 13
उत्तर
Let the positive integers be a, b, and c.
a = 13q + 9
b = 13q + 7
c = 13q + 10
a + b + c = 13q + 9 + 13q + 7 + 13q + 10
= 39q + 26
= 13(3q + 2)
which is divisible by 13.
