The numbers 2272 and 875 are divided by a 3-digit number N, giving the same remainders. The sum of the digits of N is
Option A : 10
Option B : 11
Option C : 12
Option D : 13
Show/Hide Answer Key
Option A : 10
Let the remainder in each case
be x.
Then, (2272 – x) and (875 – x)
are exactly divisible by that three digit number. Hence, their difference [(2272 –x) – (875 – x)] = 1397 will also be exactly divisible by the said divisor (N).
Now, 1397 = 11×127. Since both 11 and 127 are prime
numbers, N is 127.
Sum of digits = 1+ 2 + 7 = 10
