3 1/3 it looks like a trick question cause he stater that same has that many books left to read
I would say 1 would be the least possible remainder...
11/5 = 2 remainder 1
21/5 = 4 remainder 1
31/5 = 3 remainder 1
and since ur dealing with positive integers (whole numbers), 1 is gonna be the smallest
Here is your answer

<u>EXPLANA</u><u>TION</u>

Here, we multiply <em><u>numerator</u></em> of one fraction to the <em><u>numerator</u></em> of the other fraction and similarly the <em><u>denominators</u></em> of both fractions are multiplied.

<u>Answer:</u>
The equation of a polynomial of degree 3, with zeros 1, 2 and -1 is 
<u>Solution:</u>
Given, the polynomial has degree 3 and roots as 1, 2, and -1. And f(0) = 2.
We have to find the equation of the above polynomial.
We know that, general equation of 3rd degree polynomial is

where a, b, c are roots of the polynomial.
Here in our problem, a = 1, b = 2, c = -1.
Substitute the above values in f(x)


So, the equation is 
Let us put x = 0 in f(x) to check whether our answer is correct or not.

Hence, the equation of the polynomial is
