Question

The remainder of 2100 when divided by 7 is

  1. 1    
  2. 2    
  3. 3    
  4. 4    

hintHint:

We have to divide 2100 by 7. We have to find the remainder. We will use the method of congruence.

The correct answer is: 3


    We have to find the remainder when 2100  is divided by 7.
    We will use the method of congruence to solve the question.
    When a is the dividend, b is the remainder and n is the divisor, we can write it in the following form.
    a = b(modn)
    We will find the value of the dividend in such a way that, we get a remainder 1. Then using that, we can adjust the values we want.
    In this question, a = 2100
    n = 7
    We have to find b.
    We will start with a simpler base till we get the remainder 1.
    2 = 2(mod7)      ...{ 2 divided or modulo by 7 gives us remainder 2}
    22 = 4(mod7)    ...{ 2means 4. And, 4 divided by 7 gives us remainder 4}
    2= 1(mod7).    ...{23 means 8. And, 8 divided by 7 gives us remainder 1}
    We will use this as our base.
    299 = (23)33
    (23)33 = (1)33 (mod7) = 1(mod7)
    We will multiply both the sides by 2.
    299 × 2 = 1 × 2(mod7)
    2100 = 2(mod7)
    So, the remainder of 2100 divided by 7 is 2.

    For such questions, we should know the rules of indices.
