Statement (1) alone - no sufficient information about t Statement (2)alone - no sufficient information about n From the ques --- n = a*3 + 2 t = b*5 + 3 Using Statement (1) --- n = p*5 + 2 Thus n = 15*k + 2 Using Statement (2) --- t = q*3 + 3 Thus t = 15*j + 3 nt = 15*k(15*j + 3) + 30*j + 6 => always leaves a remainder of 6 when divided by 15.
