Test: HCF and LCM- 3 - Question 1

The least number which when divided by 5, 6, 7 and 8 leaves a remainder 3, but when divided by 9 leaves no remainder, is

Detailed Solution for Test: HCF and LCM- 3 - Question 1

 L.C.M of 5, 6, 7, 8 = 840

Therefore, Required Number is of the form 840k+3.

Least value of k for which (840k+3) is divisible by 9 is k = 2 

Therefore, Required  Number = (840 x 2+3)=1683

Detailed Solution for Test: HCF and LCM- 3 - Question 6

a*b = 5*275 and a+b = 80
(a+b)/(a*b) = 80/(5*275) = 16/275

Detailed Solution for Test: HCF and LCM- 3 - Question 9

LCM (12, 8, 22, 30) = 3960

Test: HCF and LCM- 3 - Question 10

Find the greatest number that will divide 427 and 900 leaving the remainders 3 and 8 respectively?

Detailed Solution for Test: HCF and LCM- 3 - Question 10

HCF (427 – 3, 900 – 8) (424, 892) = 4

Test: HCF and LCM- 3 - Question 11

What is the HCF of 3/5, 7/10, 2/15, 6/21?

Detailed Solution for Test: HCF and LCM- 3 - Question 11

HCF will be HCF of numerators/LCM of denominators
So HCF = HCF of 3,7,2,6)/(LCM of 5,10, 15, 21)
= 1/210

Test: HCF and LCM- 3 - Question 12

The HCF and LCM of two numbers is 84 and 840 respectively. If the first number is 168, find the second one.

Detailed Solution for Test: HCF and LCM- 3 - Question 12

Product of two numbers = HCF * LCM
So 2nd number = 84*840/168

Test: HCF and LCM- 3 - Question 13

Sum of 2 numbers is 128 and their HCF is 8. How many numbers of pairs of numbers will satisfy this condition?

Detailed Solution for Test: HCF and LCM- 3 - Question 13

Since HCF = 8 is highest common factor among those numbers
So, let first no = 8x, 2nd number = 8y
So 8x + 8y = 128
x + y = 16
the co-prime numbers which sum up 16 are (1,15), (3,13), (5,11), and (7,9) *co-prime numbers are those which do no have any factor in common. These pairs are taken here because in HCF highest common factor is taken, so the remaining multiples x and y must have no common factors.
Since there are 4 pairs of co-prime numbers here, there will be 4 pairs of numbers satisfying given conditions. These are (8*1, 8*15), (8*3, 8*13) , (8*5, 8*11) , (8*7, 8*9)

Test: HCF and LCM- 3 - Question 14

Find the least number exactly divisible by 10, 15, 18 and 30.

Detailed Solution for Test: HCF and LCM- 3 - Question 14

It will be the LCM of these numbers.

Test: HCF and LCM- 3 - Question 15

Find the least number which when divided by15, 21, 24 and 32 leaves the same remainder 2 in each case.

Detailed Solution for Test: HCF and LCM- 3 - Question 15

It will be the LCM of these numbers + 2
So 3360 + 2

Test: HCF and LCM- 3 - Question 16

Find the least number which when divided by 10, 15, 18 and 30 leaves remainders 6, 11, 14 and 26 respectively.

Detailed Solution for Test: HCF and LCM- 3 - Question 16

Since 10-6 = 4, 15-11 = 4, 18-14 = 4, 30-26 = 4
So answer will be the LCM of these numbers – 4
So 90 – 4

Test: HCF and LCM- 3 - Question 17

Find the smallest number of 4 digits which is exactly divisible by 12, 15, 21 and 30.

Detailed Solution for Test: HCF and LCM- 3 - Question 17

Least 4 digit number = 1000
LCM of (12, 15, 21, 30) = 420
On dividing 420 by 1000, leaves remainder = 160
So answer = 1000 + (420 – 160)

Test: HCF and LCM- 3 - Question 18

Find the least number which when divided by 2, 5, 9 and 12 leaves a remainder 3 but leaves no remainder when same number is divided by 11.

Detailed Solution for Test: HCF and LCM- 3 - Question 18

LCM(2, 5, 9, 12) = 180
So the number will be somewhat = 180x + 3
This number leaves no remainder when divided by 11, so x = 2 to get (180x+3) fully divided by 11
So number = 180*2 + 3

Test: HCF and LCM- 3 - Question 19

HCF and LCM of two numbers is 5 and 275 respectively and the sum of these two numbers is 80. Find the sum of the reciprocals of these numbers.

Detailed Solution for Test: HCF and LCM- 3 - Question 19

x + y = 80, xy = 5*275 = 1375
sum of reciprocals = 1/x + 1/y = (x+y)/xy = 80/1375

Test: HCF and LCM- 3 - Question 20

The HCF and LCM of two numbers is 70 and 1050 respectively. If the first number is 210, find the second one.

Detailed Solution for Test: HCF and LCM- 3 - Question 20

Produvt of two numbers = HCF * LCM
So 2nd number = 70*1050/210
