• Question 1 of 5 1. Question When a number is divided by 15, 20 and 35 each time the remainder is 8.Then the smallest possible number is: a) 428 b) 538 c) 418 d) 630 Correct Answer: A Solution LCM of (15, 20, 35) = 5347 = 420 Required number = 420+8 = 428 Incorrect Answer: A Solution LCM of (15, 20, 35) = 5347 = 420 Required number = 420+8 = 428

#### 1. Question

When a number is divided by 15, 20 and 35 each time the remainder is 8.Then the smallest possible number is:

LCM of (15, 20, 35)

= 534*7 = 420

Required number = 420+8 = 428

LCM of (15, 20, 35)

= 534*7 = 420

Required number = 420+8 = 428

• Question 2 of 5 2. Question The LCM and the HCF of the numbers 14 and 28 are in the ratio of: a) 2 : 3 b) 2 : 1 c) 3 : 1 d) 2 : 5 Correct Answer: B Solution Numbers, x= 14 and y = 28 HCF of (14, 28) HCF = 14 Now, LCM of (14, 28) 1412 = 28 LCM : HCF = 28 : 14 = 2 : 1 Incorrect Answer: B Solution Numbers, x= 14 and y = 28 HCF of (14, 28) HCF = 14 Now, LCM of (14, 28) 1412 = 28 LCM : HCF = 28 : 14 = 2 : 1

#### 2. Question

The LCM and the HCF of the numbers 14 and 28 are in the ratio of:

Numbers, x= 14 and y = 28

HCF of (14, 28)

LCM of (14, 28)

1412 = 28

LCM : HCF = 28 : 14 = 2 : 1

Numbers, x= 14 and y = 28

HCF of (14, 28)

LCM of (14, 28)

1412 = 28

LCM : HCF = 28 : 14 = 2 : 1

• Question 3 of 5 3. Question The HCF and LCM of two 2-digit numbers are 8 and 240 respectively. The numbers are a) (40, 48) b) (40, 96) c) (16, 40) d) None of the above Correct Answer: A Solution Let numbers are 8x and 8y. 8xy = 240 xy = 30 Possible pairs = (1, 30), (2, 15), (5, 6) Possible numbers = (8, 240), (16, 120), (40, 48) Answer = (40, 48) Incorrect Answer: A Solution Let numbers are 8x and 8y. 8xy = 240 xy = 30 Possible pairs = (1, 30), (2, 15), (5, 6) Possible numbers = (8, 240), (16, 120), (40, 48) Answer = (40, 48)

#### 3. Question

The HCF and LCM of two 2-digit numbers are 8 and 240 respectively. The numbers are

• a) (40, 48)

• b) (40, 96)

• c) (16, 40)

• d) None of the above

Let numbers are 8x and 8y.

Possible pairs = (1, 30), (2, 15), (5, 6)

Possible numbers = (8, 240), (16, 120), (40, 48)

Answer = (40, 48)

Let numbers are 8x and 8y.

Possible pairs = (1, 30), (2, 15), (5, 6)

Possible numbers = (8, 240), (16, 120), (40, 48)

Answer = (40, 48)

• Question 4 of 5 4. Question The LCM of two numbers is 3640 and their HCF is 78.if one of the number is 156, the other number is a) 1500 b) 1820 c) 2000 d) 2080 Correct Answer: B Solution LCMHCF = ab a = First number b = Second number 364078 = 156b b = 1820 Incorrect Answer: B Solution LCMHCF = ab a = First number b = Second number 364078 = 156b b = 1820

#### 4. Question

The LCM of two numbers is 3640 and their HCF is 78.if one of the number is 156, the other number is

LCMHCF = ab

a = First number

b = Second number

364078 = 156b

LCMHCF = ab

a = First number

b = Second number

364078 = 156b

• Question 5 of 5 5. Question If the product of two numbers is 2560 and their HCF is 16.The LCM of the numbers will be a) 90 b) 160 c) 178 d) 82 Correct Answer: B Solution LCMHCF = ab a = First number b = Second number LCM16 = 2560 LCM = 160 Incorrect Answer: B Solution LCMHCF = ab a = First number b = Second number LCM16 = 2560 LCM = 160

#### 5. Question

If the product of two numbers is 2560 and their HCF is 16.The LCM of the numbers will be

LCMHCF = ab

a = First number

b = Second number

LCM*16 = 2560

LCMHCF = ab

a = First number

b = Second number

LCM*16 = 2560
