I have this question: A number leaves remainder 2 when divided by 11. What remainder may it leaves when divided by 44?
A. 13
B. 39
C. 42
So my solution is:
Let's call that number is A
A = 11k+2
=> A is divided by 44 means that (11k+2)/44
Because 2/44 has remainder 2, so the remainder of (11k+2)/44 depends on the remainder of 11k/44
Then I try with various value of k from 1, 2, 3...
And I got that:
If k=1 -> the remainder is 11
If k=2 -> the remainder is 22
If k=3 -> the remainder is 33
if K =4 -> the remainder is 0
And this will be the same for k = 5,6,7...
So 11k/44 will have 3 remainders 11, 22, 33 with different k
Hence the answer is A
But I think it has another way to have the conclusion.
I mean, normally 11k/44 = B + r, with 11<r<44. But how can we know that r just can only 11, 22, and 33 without try with different k value
Really hope that I can get help from you guys

Thank you so much!!!
