Find the remainder when `38 + 71 + 85` is divided by 16.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

When we divided 38,71 and 85 we obtain the respective remainders as 6,7 and 5. Now we can obtain the requried remainder by dividing the sum of remainders (i.e.,6+7+5=18) by 16, which is 2 instead of diving the sum of actual given numbers (i.e., 38+71+85=194) by 16, which also gives us the same reminder 2.
