What are the Euclidean quotient and remainder when 314 is divided by 27?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: (q=11, r=17)
Step 1: (27\times11=297) and (27\times12=324). Step 2: The greatest multiple not exceeding 314 is 297, so the remainder is 17. Step 3: Do not accept a negative remainder or a remainder greater than the divisor.
