Hi, 6 can be subtracted only once from 36 ..... the logic is when 6 is subtracted from 36 the reminder is 30 and not 36..... Bhupesh

Fully agree with Abirami, ofcourse 6 can be substract only one time from 36 i.e.
(36-6=30) which is correct answer. You are in confusion as you think that you have to substract 36 from 6 i.e. again (6-36= -30).

(36-6=30) which is correct answer. You are in confusion as you think that you have to substract 36 from 6 i.e. again (6-36= -30).

HI..FRIEND,
according to me, the answer will be infinite.
why?
36-6=30
30-6=24
24-6=18
18-6=12
12-6=6
6-6=0
0-6=-6
-6-6=-12
