    A number is successively divided by 5, 6, 8; leaving remainders 3, 4, 7 respectively. What will be the remainders if the order of divisors be reversed?

    A)  7, 4, 3                         

    B)  5, 3, 4             

    C)  2, 5, 4                

    D)         1, 5, 4

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Complete remainder \[={{d}_{1}}{{d}_{2}}{{r}_{3}}+{{d}_{1}}{{r}_{2}}+{{r}_{1}}\] \[=5\times 6\times 7+5\times 4+3=233.\] Dividing 233, by reversing the divisors i.e. by 8, 6, 5; respective remainders are 1, 5, 4.
