Please help me with this question
x, y, a, and b are positive integers. When x is divided by y, the remainder is 6. When a is divided by b, the remainder is 9. Which of the following is NOT a possible value for y + b?
24
21
20
17
15
I also wanted to confirm what is the minimum values for x,y,a,b (if I am not mistaken division by zero is undefined?)? Also, please let me know why other options are incorrect.
Thanks
