    A 16 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 11 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 13 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 17 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Let, the number be β€˜N’.

    ATQ,

    N = 221 Γ— k + 30 = 17 Γ— 13 Γ— k + 17 + 13 = 17 Γ— (13 Γ— k + 1) + 13

    Since, 17 Γ— (13 Γ— k + 1) is completely divisible by 17

    So, if the number is divided by 17, the remainder will be 13.
