(1) N is not divisible by 2

OA: C
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12

1) 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 ; (N-1)(N+1) is divided by 24 gives us different R

2) 1,2,4,5,7,8,10 ; (N-1)(N+1) is divided by 24 gives us different R

1+2 ) 1,5,7,11 ' (N-1)(N+1) is divided by 24 gives us 0 as the remainder

Hence, C

Logitech's solution is good.

Refer to Ian's explanation also (as best as it can get)
