Multiple choice maths hcf-lcm introduction to multiples multiples lcm

The greatest number with four digits which when divided by $3, 5, 7, 9$ leaves the remainders $1, 3, 5, 7$ respectively, is _______.

  1. $9763$
  2. $9673$
  3. $9367$
  4. $9969$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Since on dividing by $3$ the remainder is $1$, the sum of digits of the number must add upto a number, dividing which by $3$ we get remainder $1$

Since on dividing by $5$ remainder is $3$, unit place digit has to be either $3$ or $8$
Since on dividing by $9$ remainder is $7$, sum of digits should give remainder $7$ when divided by $9$ 
Only options (A), (B) satisfy these criteria
Since (A) is bigger, we divide it by $7$ and find remainder which turns out to be $5$.

When $31513$ ad $34369$ are divided by a certain three digit number, the remainders are equal, then the remainder is ______.

  1. $86$
  2. $97$
  3. $374$
  4. $113$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Let the divisor be $a$ and remainder be $r$

Let $31513 = am+r$
and $34369 = an+r$
Then, $a(n-m) = 2856 = 24\times119 = 12\times238 = 8\times357= 6\times476=4\times714$
All three digit numbers give same remainder $=$ $97$

  2. division

  3. sum

  4. difference
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A,C Correct answer
Explanation

$2, 3$ are primes.
$\therefore$ Each number has no factor other than $1$ and itself.
$\therefore$ Their LCM is the product of the numbers.
$\therefore$ LCM of $1,2,3=2\times 3=6$.
Also here $1+2+3=6$.
Answer- Option A and Option C.

L.C.M. of two co-prime numbers is their

  1. sum

  2. difference

  3. product

  4. quotient
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

The two numbers which have only 1 as their common factor are called co-primes.

For example, Factors of $ 5 $  are $ 1, 5 $
Factors of $ 3 $ are $ 1, 3 $

Common factors is $ 1 $.
So they are co-prime numbers.

To find their LCM, we

then choose each prime number with the greatest power and multiply them to get the LCM.
$ => LCM = 3 \times 5 = 15 $

Hence, LCM of two co-prime numbers is their product.
