$${n}\:{positive}\:{integer}.\:{when} \\ $$$${dividen}\:{by}\:\mathrm{7}\:{give}\:{remainder}\:\mathrm{4} \\ $$$${and}\:{when}\:{divided}\:{by}\:\mathrm{4}\:{give} \\ $$$${remainder}\:\mathrm{2}.\:{find}\:{the}\:{value} \\ $$$${of}\:{n}\: \\ $$

n=7x+4   and n=4y+2  ∴7x+4=4y+2  ⇒y=((7x+2)/4)  (x,y)=(2,4),(6,11),(10,18).....(4k−2,7k−3)  ∴n=7(4k−2)+4=28k−10

$${n}=\mathrm{7}{x}+\mathrm{4}\:\:\:{and}\:{n}=\mathrm{4}{y}+\mathrm{2} \\ $$$$\therefore\mathrm{7}{x}+\mathrm{4}=\mathrm{4}{y}+\mathrm{2} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{y}=\frac{\mathrm{7}{x}+\mathrm{2}}{\mathrm{4}} \\ $$$$\left({x},{y}\right)=\left(\mathrm{2},\mathrm{4}\right),\left(\mathrm{6},\mathrm{11}\right),\left(\mathrm{10},\mathrm{18}\right).....\left(\mathrm{4k}−\mathrm{2},\mathrm{7k}−\mathrm{3}\right) \\ $$$$\therefore{n}=\mathrm{7}\left(\mathrm{4}{k}−\mathrm{2}\right)+\mathrm{4}=\mathrm{28}{k}−\mathrm{10} \\ $$
