Given:

The remainder when -76 is divided by 3

Formula used:

Dividend = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder

Calculation:

-76 ÷ 3

⇒ Quotient = -26 (taking the floor value)

⇒ -76 = 3 × (-26) + Remainder

⇒ -76 = -78 + Remainder

⇒ Remainder = -76 - (-78)

⇒ Remainder = 2

∴ The correct answer is option (3).
