PLEASE HELP If n/8 has a remainder of 5, then which of the following has a remainder of 7?

A) n+1/8

B) n+2/8

C) n+5/8

D) n+7/8

has a remainder of 7 ⇒ B

Step-by-step explanation:

In m ÷ n = c + ,

Let us use the facts above to solve the question

∵ has a remainder of 5

→ Let us find the first number divided by 8 and give a reminder of 5

  that means let the quotient = 1

∵ n = (8 × 1) + 5 = 8 + 5

∴ n = 13

∵ has a remainder of 7

→ Let us find the first number divided by 8 and give a reminder of 7

  that means let the quotient = 1

∵ n + x = (8 × 1) + 7 = 8 + 7

∴ n + x = 15

∵ n = 13

∴ 13 + x = 15

→ Subtract 13 from both sides

∴ 13 -13 + x = 15 - 13

∴ x = 2

∴ has a remainder of 7
