Question Detail

Find the HCF of
\begin{aligned}
2^2 \times 3^2 \times 7^2, 2 \times 3^4 \times 7
\end{aligned}

  • 128
  • 126
  • 146
  • 434

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

HCF is Highest common factor, so we need to get the common highest factors among given values. So we got
2 * 3*3 * 7

1. If the product of two numbers is 84942 and their H.C.F. is 33, find their L.C.M.

  • 2574
  • 2500
  • 1365
  • 1574

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

HCF * LCM = 84942, because we know

Product of two numbers = Product of HCF and LCM

LCM = 84942/33 = 2574

2. Reduce \begin{aligned}
\frac{803}{876}
\end{aligned} to the lowest terms.

  • \begin{aligned} \frac{11}{12} \end{aligned}
  • \begin{aligned} \frac{23}{24} \end{aligned}
  • \begin{aligned} \frac{26}{27} \end{aligned}
  • \begin{aligned} \frac{4}{7} \end{aligned}

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

HCF of 803 and 876 is 73, Divide both by 73, We get the answer 11/12

3. If LCM of two number is 693, HCF of two numbers is 11 and one number is 99, then find other

  • 34
  • 77
  • 12
  • 45

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

For any this type of question, remember
Product of two numbers = Product of their HCF and LCM

So Other number = \begin{aligned} \frac{693 \times 11}{99} \end{aligned} = 77

4. Find the largest number which divides 62,132,237 to leave the same reminder

  • 30
  • 32
  • 35
  • 45

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Trick is HCF of (237-132), (132-62), (237-62)
= HCF of (70,105,175) = 35

5. Find the greatest number which on dividing 1661 and 2045, leaves a reminder of 10 and 13 respectively

  • 125
  • 127
  • 129
  • 131

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

In this type of question, its obvious we need to calculate the HCF, trick is
HCF of (1661 - 10) and (2045 -13)
= HCF (1651, 2032) = 127
