Correct Answer: 6
Solution : Let the quotient when the number is divided by 45 be $x$. Then, the number should be 45$x$ + 21 = (15 × 3$x$) + 21 Let 3$x$ = P. So, 45$x$ + 21 = 15P + 21 So, it is clear that 15P is completely divisible by 15 So, the remainder should be 21 – 15 = 6. Hence, the correct answer is 6.
