Answer : 3. "234 "
Explanation :
Number at (i) = 643 – 175 = 468
Number at (ii) = 1752 – 114 = 1638
Number at (iii) = 1149 – 213 = 936
Clearly, 468, 1638 and 936 are multiples of 234 and 234 > 213.
Divisor = 234

Answer : 4. "2 "
Explanation :
On dividing the given number by 119, let k be the quotient and 19 as remainder.
Then, number = 119k + 19
= 17 × 7k + 17 × 1 + 2
= 17 (7k + 1) + 2
Hence, the given number when divided by 17, gives (7k + 1) as quotient and 2 as remainder.

Answer : 1. "28 "
Explanation :
Number just greater than 3 which is divisible by 7 = 7
Number just smaller than 200 which is divisible by 7 = 196
Here, a = 7, an = 196,
d = 7, n = 8
an = a + (n –1)d
⇒196 = 7 + (n – 1) × 7
⇒
⇒ n = 27 + 1 = 28
Note : We can find the answer after dividing 200 by 7. The quotient is our answer.

Answer : 2. "1 "
Explanation :
Let number (dividend) be X.
∴ X = 296 × Q + 75 where Q is the quotient and can have the values 1, 2, 3 etc.
= 37 × 8 × Q + 37 × 2 + 1
= 37 (8Q + 2) + 1
Thus we see that the remainder is 1.
[Remark : When the second divisor is a factor of the first divisor, the second remainder is obtained by dividing the first remainder by the second divisor.
Hence, divide 75 by 37, the remainder is 1].
