Question Number 121568 by mathocean1 last updated on 09/Nov/20

Given: N in base 10 is 158b687a where b and a are digits (a<b). Given: N≡2+a[4]. 1) Determinate couples (a;b) such that 11 divise N. 2) Determinate couples (a;b) such that 3 and 25 divise N. thanks.

1)jf 11 divise N , then N≡0mod(11) 15806870+10000b+a≡0mod(11) 2+b+a≡omod(11) a+b≡9mod11 (a,b)=(0,9)(1,8)(2,7)...(8,1)(9,0) 2)if N is multiple of 25 , therefore the last two digits are 00 ,25,50 or 75 as the last two digits of N are 7a , then a=5 to be multiple of 3 , the sum of the digits are a multiple too then 1+5+8+b+6+8+7+5≡0mod3 b+40≡0mod3 b≡2mod3 b=2,5,8 (a,b)=(5,2)(5,5)(5,8) I hope i′ve helped :)
