If I divide x by 6, I get a quotient of 13 and a remainder of 5. What is x?

Question

83
75
69
122

Answer 1

When you divide \( x \) by 6 and get a quotient of 13 and a remainder of 5, you can express this relationship mathematically as:

\[ x = 6 \cdot \text{quotient} + \text{remainder} \]

Substituting in the values for the quotient and the remainder, you get:

\[ x = 6 \cdot 13 + 5 \]

Calculating that:

\[ x = 78 + 5 = 83 \]

Thus, \( x \) is \( 83 \).

The answer is \( 83 \).
