Answer:
2 chairs will be left over.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that
There are a total of 1492 chairs.
which are to divided in 10 rows evenly.
To find:
Number of chairs left ?
Solution:
Let the number of chairs in each row = [tex]x[/tex]
There are 10 rows so number of chairs in rows = 10[tex]x[/tex]
Let the number of chairs left = [tex]y[/tex]
Total number of chairs =10[tex]x[/tex] + [tex]y[/tex] = 1492
The above equation is like:
Divisor [tex]\times[/tex] Quotient + Remainder = Dividend
So, we have to find the remainder in this question where we are given Divisor and Dividend.
10 [tex]\times[/tex] 149 + 2 = 1492
So, dividing 1492 with 10, we get remainder as 2.
Hence, 2 chairs will be left.
