Find the remainder when 73 × 75 × 78 × 57 × 197 × 37 is divided by 34.

Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option A
Remainder,
$$\frac{{73 \times 75 \times 78 \times 57 \times 197 \times 37}}{{34}}$$
$$ = \frac{{5 \times 7 \times 10 \times 23 \times 27 \times 3}}{{34}}$$
[We have taken individual remainder, which means if 73 is divided by 34 individually, it will give remainder 5, 75 divided 34 gives remainder 7 and so on.]

$$\eqalign{ & \frac{{5 \times 7 \times 10 \times 23 \times 27 \times 3}}{{34}} \cr & = \frac{{35 \times 30 \times 23 \times 27}}{{34}} \cr & = \frac{{1 \times - 4 \times - 11 \times - 7}}{{34}} \cr} $$

[We have taken here negative as well as positive remainder at the same time. When 30 divided by 34 it will give either positive remainder 30 or negative remainder -4. We can use any one of negative or positive remainder at any time.]

$$\eqalign{ & \frac{{1 \times - 4 \times - 11 \times - 7}}{{34}} \cr & = \frac{{28 \times - 11}}{{34}} \cr & = \frac{{ - 6 \times - 11}}{{34}} \cr & = \frac{{66}}{{34}} \cr & {\text{R}} = 32 \cr} $$
Required remainder = 32

How did it become -6 from 28 in the second last line?

67^99÷7
We will break 67 , so that we can get multiple of 7
I.e.
63+4^99÷7 = 4^99÷7
(4^3)^33÷7= (64)^33÷7
1^33÷7= 1 remainder

I got it.. 32.
Divide each number by 34.. e.g., 73/34, R(reminder)=5.. like that, u will get... (5*7*10*23*27*3)/34 = 35*23*27*30 / 34. Now 35/34, R=1 and {{23/34 (or) also = - (34/23)=R= - 11}} & -(34/27)=R= -(7).
(1*(-4)*(-11)*(-7)) / 34 = -(-28)*(-11) /34= [28*(-11)] / 34=
[(-6)*(-11)]/34 (since, -[(34/28)]=-6) so, finally 66/34= R=32, Q=1._ _

In this working method, if we take arbitrary combination of the factors from the second step of the above calculation the result varies. So there must be some definite rule for combining the factors. Need the explanation.

we have to multipy the unit digits of all the given numbers. we got 0 as the unit digit. And we have to divide with the unit digit of 34 i.e. 4 and obviously, we will get the reminder as 2.The only option having unit digit as 2 is option A.
