Correct Answer: 21 cms
Explanation:
3.78 meters =378 cm = 2 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 7
5.25 meters=525 cm = 5 × 5 × 3 × 7
Hence common factors are 3 and 7
Hence LCM = 3 × 7 = 21
Hence largest size of square tiles that can be paved exactly with square tiles is 21 cm.
Correct Answer: 17/2500
Correct Answer: 3/4
Correct Answer: 9/2
Correct Answer: 9/2
Correct Answer: 117
Explanation:
H.C.F of co-prime numbers is 1. So, L.C.M = 117/1 =117
Correct Answer: 10
Explanation:
Let the numbers be x and (100-x).
Then,
=>
=> (x-55) (x-45) = 0
=> x = 55 or x = 45
The numbers are 45 and 55
Required difference = (55-45) = 10
Correct Answer: -2
Explanation:
H. C. F of two prime numbers is 1. Product of numbers = 1 x 161 = 161.
Let the numbers be a and b . Then , ab= 161.
Now, co-primes with product 161 are (1, 161) and (7, 23).
Since x and y are prime numbers and x >y , we have x=23 and y=7.
Therefore, 3y-x = (3 x 7)-23 = -2
Correct Answer: 11/120
Explanation:
Let the numbers be a and b.
Then, a + b = 55 and ab = 5 x 120 = 600.
The required sum = = = =
Correct Answer: 77
Explanation:
Product of numbers = 11 x 385 = 4235
Let the numbers be 11a and 11b . Then , 11a x 11b = 4235 => ab = 35
Now, co-primes with product 35 are (1,35) and (5,7)
So, the numbers are ( 11 x 1, 11 x 35) and (11 x 5, 11 x 7)
Since one number lies 75 and 125, the suitable pair is (55,77)
Hence , required number = 77
