What is the remainder when 333222 is divided by 7?a)3b)2c)5d)7e)1Corre...
333222 = (329+4)222 = (7∗47+4)222. Now if we expand this, all terms but the last one will have 7*47 as a multiple and thus will be divisible by 7. The last term will be 4222 = 2444. So we should find the remainder when 2444 is divided by 7.
21 divided by 7 yields remainder of 2;
22 divided by 7 yields remainder of 4;
23 divided by 7 yields remainder of 1;
24 divided by 7 yields remainder of 2;
25 divided by 7 yields remainder of 4;
26 divided by 7 yields remainder of 1;
...
The remainder repeats in blocks of three: {2-4-1}. So, the remainder of 2444 divided by 7 would be the same as 23 divided by 7 (444 is a multiple of 3). 2323 divided by 7 yields remainder of 1.
