Akash wants to donate 87375 blankets to 698 complexes in a nearby locality. If he wants to keep some blankets with himself, then how many such blankets should he keep so that all the complexes get equal number of blankets? Correct Answer 125

Given 

Total number of blanket = 87375 

Number of localities = 698

According to the question, 

Dividend = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder

⇒ 87375 = 698 × 125 + 125

As the remainder is 125

∴ 125 blankets should he keep so that all the complexes get equal number of blankets
