You work out 1% of the number (divide by 100) and then work out 5% of the number (divide by easier option to work out 6%: work out 1% (divide by 100) (move 2 places back) then times by 6
Yes, you can have a remainder of 5 when you divide by 6. If you divide 11 by 6, it will go into it one time with a remainder of 5.
The largest remainder when dividing by 6 is 5. This is true because if the remainder is 6, the 6 would divide into the number again. For example: 35 divided by 6 is 5 remainder 5. 36 divided by 6 cannot be 5 remainder 6 because 6 will divide into 36 again. The answer would be 6.
The smallest possible number is the lowest common multiple of 2, 5, 6 = 30.
