Q10. Find the greatest number, which will divide 215, 167 and 135, so as to leave the same remainder in each case.

10
20
18
16
12
Solution:

Greatest number which will divide 215, 167 and 135, so as to leave the same reminder in each case will be the HCF of (215 – 167), (167 – 135) and (215 – 135) i.e., the HCF of 48, 32 and 80. Since, HCF of 48, 32 and 80 is 16.
So, the greatest number which divide 215, 167 and 135, so as to leave the same remainder in each case is 16.

Q11. Find the least number which when divided by 10, 11, 15 and 22 leaves 3, 4, 8 and 15 as remainders, respectively.

332
323
233
325
245
Solution:

Least number which when divided by 10, 11, 15 and 22 so as to leave 3, 4, 8 and 15 as remainders, respectively will be equal to [LCM (10, 11, 15, 22) –7] Since, LCM of 10, 11, 15 and 22 is 330
∴ The required number = 330 – 7 = 323

Q12. The L.C.M. of two numbers is 48. The numbers are in the ratio of 2: 3. Find sum of numbers.

50
60
40
45
30
Solution:

Let the numbers be 2x and 3x.
So, their LCM = 6x
However, the LCM is given as 48
∴ 6x=48 ⇒ x=8
So, the numbers are 16 and 24.
Hence, their sum is 40.

Q13. Find the greatest possible length which can be used to measure 4 m 3 cm, 4 m 34 cm and 4 m 65 cm exactly.

31 cm
41 cm
35 cm
21 cm
51 cm
Solution:

Required measure
= HCF of 403, 434 and 465=31 cm.

Q15. The LCM and HCF of two numbers are 240 and 16 respectively. If two numbers are in the ratio 3: 5, then the bigger number is:

90
85
70
80
75
Solution:

Suppose two numbers are 3x and 5x Then, 3x×5x=HCF×240
⇒ 15x²=16×240
⇒ x²=256
⇒ x=16
So, the numbers are
3x = 3×16 = 48 and 5x × 16 = 80
