    B 3 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 1 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Let the number be:

    Number = 21E + 7, where E is an integer.

    Six times the number = 6 × (21E + 7) = 126E + 42

    Now divide by 21:

    (126E + 42) = (126E + 21 + 21)

    ⇒ Remainder = 0
