Correct answer: B

Let the number be N. Given that when N is divided by 52, the remainder is 45. So, we can write N = 52k + 45 for some integer k.

Now, we need to find the remainder when N is divided by 13. Substitute N: N = 52k + 45.

Divide N by 13: (52k + 45) ÷ 13 = 52k ÷ 13 + 45 ÷ 13.

Since 52 ÷ 13 = 4, 52k ÷ 13 = 4k, which is an integer. So, the remainder comes only from 45 ÷ 13.

Now, 13 × 3 = 39, and 45 - 39 = 6. So, 45 ÷ 13 gives remainder 6.

Therefore, the remainder when N is divided by 13 is 6.

हिन्दी उत्तर: माना संख्या N है। 52 से भाग देने पर शेषफल 45 है, अतः N = 52k + 45 होगा। अब N को 13 से भाग देने पर, (52k + 45) ÷ 13 = 4k + 45/13। 52k ÷ 13 = 4k पूर्णांक है, इसलिए शेषफल 45 ÷ 13 से आता है। 13 × 3 = 39, 45 - 39 = 6। अतः शेषफल 6 है।
