Q13. A two digit number is divided by the sum of its digits. What is the maximum possible remainder?

12.5

Solution:

The maximum possible remainder must be less than 18 as the sum of any two digits cannot be greater than 18.
So, we check when the sum of digits is 18. If the sum of digits is 18 then the only possible remainder is 9 in case of 99.
Similarly, if the sum of digits is 17 the maximum possible remainder is 13 in case of 98.
Similarly, if the sum of digits is 16 the maximum possible remainder is 15 in case of 79.
So our desired value is 15 and in all other cases, value of remainder will be less than 15.

None of these

Solution:

let average run scored in 86 innings =N
Total no. of runs scored till the 86 inning = 86N
Now,
86N + 270 = 87 (N + S)
Where S is increase in batting average.
Hence, three different values of S = 1, 2,3 because any whole number greater than 3 will leave us with a negative value of N.

Number of articles made in the second hour = 45
Number of articles made in 3rd hour = 63
Number of articles made in 4th hour = 42
