Question:

What is the remainder when the number $(44)^2$ is divided by 9?

Options:

1

2

4

8

Correct Answer:

1

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (1) → 1

First, compute (44)² = 44 × 44 = 1936.

Now, find 1936 ÷ 9:

9 × 215 = 1935

1936 - 1935 = 1

So, 1936 = 9 × 215 + 1 → remainder = 1
