This question is not in the newest edition of the verbal review but a portion of this stimulus was transformed into an inference question (#56) in OG 12 edition.

Author: mepinoargote Subject: a question about remainders Posted: Fri Sep 03, 2010 5:31 pm (GMT -7) When a possitive integer is divided by 7, the only possible remainders are 0,1,2,3,4,5 and 6. Also, each of these remainders will occur exactly once when the terms in a sequence of 7 consecutive integers are divided by 7. This is an explanation i got from OG about remainders, Can i generalize this rule when dividing a possitive integer by any n possitive integer

Author: Maciek Posted: Fri Sep 03, 2010 1:48 pm (GMT -7) Hi! ‘Which’ is simply better here than ‘that’. We use ‘which’ if we want to give more information about a noun just before the comma. Quote: When the information provided by the clause is required to identify the person (or thing), then there are no commas with ‘which’.
