Mr. Hanson has a pool of money from which to give out Christmas bonuses to his 5 employees. He wants all his employees to have identical bonuses, but when he divides them out, he finds he has 2 dollars left over, as the payroll system will only accept whole dollar amounts. The next Christmas, Mr. Hanson discovers the pool for the bonuses is 3 times the size. This time, how much money will be left over? Choose the correct choice:	A) 0	B) 1	C) 2	D) 3	E) 4

Rationale: set x = to amount of money for bonuses , and y to be the amount of each individual bonus . x = 5 * y + 2 . 3 x = 15 * y + 6 3 x = 3 * 5 * y + 6 3 x = 5 ( 3 ( y + 1 ) ) + 1 remainder is then 1 , so option b .
Answer: B
