Finding remainder on dividing numbers

Hereisaniftywaytofindremainderondivingnumbers:
Remainderondividingby3
Tofindtheremainderofanumberdividedby3,addthedigitsofthenumberanddivideitby3.
Soifthedigitsaddedtogetherequal8thenthenumberhasaremainderof2since8dividedby3
hasaremainderof2.
Forexample,findtheremainderondividing1,342,568by3.
Thedigitsumof1342568is1+3+4+2+5+6+8=29.
Again,thedigitsumof29=2+9=11=2
So,theremainderwillbe2.
Anotherexample:Take34,259,677,858.
Thedigitsumofthenumberis3+4+2+5+9+6+7+7+8+5+8=64.
Now,thedigitsumof64is6+4=10=1.
So,theremainderis1.
Similarly,thedigitsumof54,670,329,845is53i.e.(5+3=)8.

Remainderondividingby11
The difference of the sums of the alternate digits is the remainder after dividing by 11 if it is
positive.Ifthenumberisnegativeadd11toittogettheremainder.
Takethenumber34568276forexample.
Sumofalternatedigitsare3+5+8+8=24and4+6+2+6=18
Anddifferenceofthesesums=2418=6.
So,theremainderis6.
