D Correct answer
Explanation

The product of highest common factor $(H.C.F.)$ and lowest common multiple $(L.C.M.)$ of two numbers is equal to the product of two numbers.

If two numbers are $a$ and $b$ then
$HCF\ \times LCM=a\times b$ 

Hence,
$HCF=\dfrac{ab}{LCM}$

For example: 
Let $a=10\Rightarrow 2\times 5$ and $b=15\Rightarrow 3\times 5$
So, the $LCM$ of both numbers $=2\times 3\times 5\Rightarrow 30$
Then 
$HCF=\dfrac{10\times 15}{30}\Rightarrow 5$

Hence,
$HCF=\dfrac{Product\ of\ numbers}{Their\ LCM}.$

What is the HCF of $4x^{3} + 3x^{2}y - 9xy^{2} + 2y^{3}$ and $x^{2} + xy - 2y^{2}$?

  1. $x - 2y$
  2. $x - y$
  3. $(x + 2y)(x - y)$
  4. $(x - 2y)(x - y)$

C Correct answer
Explanation

Let $f(x, y) = 4x^{2} + 3x^{2}y - 9xy^{2} + 2y^{3}$
and $g(x, y) = x^{2} + xy - 2y^{2}$
Clearly $(x - y) = 0$ or $x = y$ satisfy both equation, since for $x = y$ makes both equations zero. 

Hence, $(x - y)$ is the H.C.F. 
Similarly $(x + 2y) = 0$ i.e., $x = -2y$ also makes both equations zero. 
Thus, $(x + 2y)(x - y)$ is the H.C.F.

C Correct answer
Explanation

For the two polynomials to have an HCF involving x, they must share a common root. x^2 - 2x - 3 factors to (x-3)(x+1). Testing x=3 in the second polynomial: 27 - 18 - 3n - 3 = 0 => 6 - 3n = 0 => n=2.

If HCF of numbers $408$ and $1032$ can be expressed in the form of $1032x -408 \times 5$, then find the value of $x$.

  1. $0$
  2. $1$
  3. $2$
  4. $3$

C Correct answer
Explanation
$408=2\times2\times2\times3\times17$

$1032=2\times2\times2\times3\times43$

Hence, $HCF=2\times2\times2\times3=24$

Now, $1032x-408\times5=24\Rightarrow 1032x=2064\Rightarrow x=2$
