Question
what least number must be added to 11943 to get a number exactly divisible by 29?

Answer
Hello Shubhi,

You can simply find the least number by dividing the number by 29 and find the remainder and compare it with 29.

While diving 11943 by 29 by the long division method I arrived at 24 which can’t be divided by 29 so I need 5 to be added to11943. So the least number to be added is 5
