A number when divided by 779 gives a remainder 47. By dividing the same number by 19, what would be the remainder?  Pick one.
A) 9
B) 8
C) 7
D) 6
E) 5
Number = ( 779 x a) + 47, where "a" is the quotient   = (19 x 41 x a) + (19 x 2) + 9   = 19 x (41a + 2) + 9   = 19 x (New quotient) + 9   \inline \fn_jvn \therefore Required remainder = 9   9nswer:9
