Correct Answer - Option 2 : 1
Given:
90 + 9 + 92.........................+ 98.
Formula used:
a0 = 1 (where a = any number)
Calculations:
6 is an even multiple of 3. When any even multiple of 3 is divided by 6, it will leave a remainder of 0. Or in other words, it is perfectly divisible by 6.
On the contrary, when any odd multiple of 3 is divided by 6, it will leave a remainder of 3. For e.g when 9 an odd multiple of 3 is divided by 6, you will get a remainder of 3.
9 is an odd multiple of 3. And all powers of 9 are odd multiples of 3.
Therefore, when each of the 8 powers of 9 listed above is divided by 6, each of them will leave a remainder of 3.
⇒ The total value of the remainder = 1 + 3 + 3 +.........................3 (8 reminders) = 1 + 24
⇒ 24 is divisible by 6 and 1 will reminder.
∴ The remainder when 90 + 9 + 92.........................+ 98 is divided by 6 is 1.
