When the positive integer x is divided by 11, the quotient is y and the remainder 3. When x is divided by 19, the remainder is also three. What is the remainder when y is divided by 19?

A. 0
B. 1
C. 2
D. 3
E. 4


Same approach as yezzz my answer is also A as I get remainder = 0 too.

yezz, simaq
I also got 0 as remainder..but dint see it as obvious as you did.

when you have 19K/11 = y 19*(k/11) = y
How did you know k/11 is integer to say y is multiple of 19.

I am sure I am missing some basic concept perhaps. So wanted to learn it.
