  • Question
  • How many remainders are possible if 16n is divided by 9 for any positive integral value of n ?


  • Options
  • A. 1
  • B. 2
  • C. 3
  • D. 4

  • Correct Answer


  • Explanation

    When  16 n is divided by 9, we have

      16 1 9 , remainder = 7  

    16 2 9 , remainder = 4 

    16 3 9 , remainder = 1 

    16 4 9 , remainder = 7 

    16 5 9 , remainder = 4 

    16 6 9 , remainder = 1 

    So, we have cyclicity of 3 factors i.e 7,4,1. 

    Hence only 3 remainders are possible.
