Coby Park · Answer 1

N/13 = 15 with a remainder of 12:

Multiply both sides of this eq'n by 13, to eliminate fractions:

15N = 13 (15) + 12 = 195 + 12 = 207

Let's check our answer.

Divide 13 into 207. Using a calculator, we find the quotient is 15.923.

The remainder is 0.923 times 13, or 12.

The number N is 207
