Answer : 2. "1 "
Explanation :

Let number (dividend) be X.

∴ X = 296 × Q + 75 where Q is the quotient and can have the values 1, 2, 3 etc.

= 37 × 8 × Q + 37 × 2 + 1

= 37 (8Q + 2) + 1

Thus we see that the remainder is 1.

[Remark : When the second divisor is a factor of the first divisor, the second remainder is obtained by dividing the first remainder by the second divisor.

Hence, divide 75 by 37, the remainder is 1].

Answer : 4. "2 "
Explanation :

On dividing the given number by 119, let k be the quotient and 19 as remainder.

Then, number = 119k + 19

= 17 × 7k + 17 × 1 + 2

= 17 (7k + 1) + 2

Hence, the given number when divided by 17, gives (7k + 1) as quotient and 2 as remainder.
