got 84 by simple guessing
R=4


stolyar

could you explain please

This is how i did it

x = 12m
x = 11n + 7

12m = 11n + 7
m = (11n+ 7)/12

We know m is an integer ...so 11n+7 is a multiple of 12..
n = 7 , m = 84

so .. x = 12 * 84

x divided by 8 will have remainder 0.

84=11*7+7
84=12*7

the last digit (4) should be the same

84=8*10+4

R=4

oh ..i did a simple mistake

n = 7 will give m= 7 ..

x =12*7 = 84

Remainder = 4

Thanks
