1.devided by 10 remaining 9, the last-right digit is 9
(also for 2 remaining 1, for 5 remaining 4)
so ok now for 10,2,5
devided 9 remaining 8, 89+10x9n ( n is whole number)(also
for 3 remaining 2, for 6 remaing 5)
so ok now for 10,2,5,9,3,6
devided 8 remaining 7, 359+10x9X4n ( n is whole number)
(also for 4 remaing 3)
so ok now for 10,2,5,9,3,6,8,4
left: devided 7 remaining 6, find the smallest n in
359+10X9X4n to meet 7 remaining 6
then you can get 2519 is the final answer to the question.

Answer / abhijeet
29/2 => qoutient = 14 (2*14=28), REMAINDER = 1 (29-28 = 1)
29/3 => qoutient = 9 (3*9=27) , REMAINDER = 2 (29-27 = 2)
29/10 => qoutient = 2 (10*2=20), REMAINDER = 2 (29-20 = 9)
SO, WE GET REMAINDERS 1, 2 and 9 respectively.

On a trek like this, each person can only carry enough rations for five days and the farthest we can travel in one day is 30 miles. Also, the city is 120 miles from the starting point. What I am trying to figure out is the fewest number of persons, including myself, that I will need in our Group so that I can reach the city, stay overnight, and then return to the coast without running out of supplies. How many persons (including myself) will I need to accomplish this mission?
