c) 180

d) 178

Let the smaller number be $x$ and the larger number = $(x+1146)$

According to ques, on dividing the larger term by smaller one,

=> $(x+1146)=4x+6$

=> $4x-x=1146-6$

=> $3x=1140$

=> $x=\frac{1140}{3}=380$

$\therefore$ Larger number = $380+1146=1526$

=> Ans – (A)

LCM of given 3 numbers (30, 36, 80) = 720

Multiple of 720 between 1000 and 2000 is 1440.

$\therefore$ Number which gives a remainder 11 in each case (1440 + 11) = 1451

Hence, option A is the correct answer.

Let the given number be x
Let a be the quotient when x is divided by 114
So $\frac{x}{114}$ = a$\frac{21}{114}$
so x = 114a + 21
when x is divided by 19 it can be written as
$\frac{x}{19} = \frac{114a + 21}{19}$
114 is divisible by 19 and 21 leaves a remainder of 2.

Number will be (136n + 36) where n is quotient
hence when it is divided by 17 remainder for $\frac{136n +36}{17}$ will be 2 as 136 is divisible by 17 and 36=34+2

n = 5k+2 (where k is quotient )
so $n^2 = 25k^2 + 4 + 20k$
Now when $n^2$ will divided by 5 , remainder will be 4.

$17^{200}=(18-1)^{200}$
Hence, when it is divided by 18, the reminder equals $(-1)^{200}=1$

Number will be equal to 420t +3 = 13M
put values of M and t accordingly and find least value of it.

The number is of the form 289n+18.
Which is equal to 17*(17n+1) +1
So, when the number is divided by 17, the reminder is 1

The numbers 6,9,12,15,18 leaves same remainder 2 in each case.

So, what we need to do is find the L.C.M. of these numbers and add 2 to it

=> L.C.M. of 6,9,12,15,18 = 180

=> Required no. = 180+2 = 182

Expression = $3^{2n}$ + 9n + 5

= $3^{2n}$ + 9n + 3 + 2

Taking 3 common from each term, we get :

=> 3 ($3^{2n-1}$ + 3n + 1) + 2

Now, if we divide the above term by 3, remainder will be 2.
