The remainder left out when 82n−(62)2n+1 is divided by 9 is
(a)0
(b)2
(c)7
(d)8
Solution
In this particular question use the concept of binomial expansion of (1+x)nwhich is given as nC0+nC1x+nC2x2+......... and write 82=64=(1+63) and 62 = (63 – 1) so use these concepts to reach the solution of the question.
Complete step-by-step solution:
Given equation
82n−(62)2n+1
Now the above equation is also written as,
⇒(82)n−(62)2n+1
⇒(64)n−(62)2n+1
⇒(1+63)n−(63−1)2n+1
⇒(1+63)n−(−1)2n+1(1−63)2n+1.................. (1)
Now as we know that (−1)2=1
⇒(−1)2n+1=(−1)2n(−1)=((−1)2)n(−1)=−1(1)n=−1 so use this value in equation (1) we have,
⇒(1+63)n−(−1)(1−63)2n+1
⇒(1+63)n+(1−63)2n+1
Now according to binomial theorem the expansion of (1+x)n=nC0+nC1x+nC2x2+......... os use this property in the above equation we have,
⇒[nC0+nC1(63)+nC2(63)2+.........]+[2n+1C0+2n+1C1(−63)+2n+1C2(−63)2+.........]
Now as we know that that nC0=2n+1C0=1, [∵nCr=r!(n−r)!n!] so we have,
⇒[1+nC1(63)+nC2(63)2+.........]+[1−2n+1C1(63)+2n+1C2(63)2+.........]
⇒2+63[(nC1+nC2(63)+...........)+(−2n+1C1+2n+1C2(63)+.........)]
Now we have to find out the remainder when the above equation is divided by 9.
Now as we know that 63 is divisible by 9 seven (7) times, so 63[(nC1+nC2(63)+...........)+(−2n+1C1+2n+1C2(63)+.........)] is divisible by 9.
So in 2+63[(nC1+nC2(63)+...........)+(−2n+1C1+2n+1C2(63)+.........)]only 2 is not divisible by 9.
So the remainder is 2 when 82n−(62)2n+1 is divided by 9.
So this is the required answer.
Hence option (b) is the correct answer.
Note: Whenever we face such types of questions the key concept we have to remember is that always recall the formula of the binomial expansion of (1+x)n which is stated above, so apply this formula as above applied and arrange its terms we will get the required answer and the important point is to break the given expression in terms of multiple of 9.
