Let be the least multiple of which when divided by and leaves the remainders and respectively. What is the sum of digits of ?
- A
- B
- C
- D
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
Let's observe the difference between divisors and their respective remainders: Since the difference is constant (), the number is of the form:
Let's find the LCM of : $
x = 9240n - 7 x 29 9240 \pmod{29} 18n - 7 \equiv 0 \pmod{29} \implies 18n \equiv 7 \pmod{29} n n = 2 18(2) - 7 = 29 29 n = 2 x x $
Let's find the LCM of : $
x = 9240n - 7 x 29 9240 \pmod{29} 18n - 7 \equiv 0 \pmod{29} \implies 18n \equiv 7 \pmod{29} n n = 2 18(2) - 7 = 29 29 n = 2 x x $
