(d) find the greatest number by which 138 and 175 is divided, leaves remainder 2 and 3 respectively.

Find the greatest number which divides 285 and 1249 leaving remainders 9 and 7 respectively.

Solution

The require number when divides 285 and 1249, leaves remainder 9 and 7, this means 285 – 9 = 276 and 1249 – 7 = 1242 are completely divisible by the number

∴ The required number = HCF of 276 and 1242

By applying Euclid’s division lemma

1242 = 276 × 4 + 138

276 = 138 × 2 + 0

∴ HCF = 138

Hence remainder is = 0

Hence required number is 138

  • What is the greatest number which divides 392?
  • What is the greatest number which divides 392 486 and 627 so as to leave the same remainder in each case?
  • What is the greatest number that divides 10 and 18?
  • How do you find the greatest number divided by?

We get

285 – 9 = 276

1249 – 7 = 1242

So the required number = HCF of 276 and 1242

By resolving the required number into prime factors

we get

276 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 23

1242 = 2 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 23

So the HCF of 276 and 1242 = 2 × 3 × 23 = 138

Therefore, the greatest number which divides 285 and 1249 leaving remainders 9 and 7 is 138.
