Correct Answer: 2


Solution : Given:
The first number is 729.
The second number is 27.
The remainder after, dividing a number by 729, is 56.
Check if the first number is completely divisible or not by the second number.
$\frac{729}{27}$ = 27
Here, the first number is completely divisible by the second number.
Now, we will divide the remainder by the second number and the remainder will be the answer.
56 = (2 × 27) + 2
So, the remainder is 2.
Hence, the correct answer is 2.
