A number divided by 56 gives 29 as remainder.

Let, the number be x
Dividend = x
Divisor = 56
Quotient = a (assume)
Remainder = 29
=> Dividend = Divisor * Quotient + Remainder
=> x = 56a + 29

What will be the remainder if the same number is divided by 8 ?

Remainder of x by 8
= Remainder of ( 56a + 29 ) by 8 = Remainder of 56a by 8 + Remainder of 29 by 8 = 0 + 5 = 5

So, Answer will be C
Hope it helps!
