(b)

Ans05.

Let a = bq + r : b = 2
0 r < 2 i.e., r = 0, 1
a = 2q + 0, 2q + 1,
If a = 2q (which is even)
If a = 2q + 1 (which is odd)
So, every positive even integer is of the form 2q and odd integer is of the form 2q + 1.

Ans06.

4n = 2 2 = 22 n

It does not contains 5. So 4n , n N can never end with the digit 0.

Ans07.

12576 = 4052 3 + 420

4052 = 420 9 + 272
420 = 272 1 + 148
272 = 148 1 + 124
148 = 124 1 + 24
124 = 24 5 + 4
24 = 4 6 + 0
HCF of 12576 and 4052 is 4.

Ans08.

HCF LCM = a b

23 1449 = 161 b
23 1449

b=
= 207
161
Other number is 207
Ans09.

The greater number of 6 digits is 999999.

[2]

LCM of 24, 15, and 36 is 360.

999999 = 360 2777 + 279
Re quired number is = 999999 279 = 999720

Ans10.

Let a = 4q + r, when r = 0, 1, 2 and 3

Numbers are 4q, 4q + 1, 4q + 2 and 4q + 3

( a ) = ( 4q ) = 16q 2 = 4 ( 4q ) = 4m
2
2
( a ) = ( 4q + 1) = 16q 2 + 8q + 1 = 4 ( 4q 2 + 2q ) + 1 = 4m + 1
2

(a)

(a)

= ( 4q + 2 ) = 16q 2 + 16q + 4 = 4 ( 4q 2 + 4q + 1) = 4m
2

= ( 4q + 3) = 16q 2 + 24q + 9 = 4 ( 4q 2 + 6q + 2 ) + 1 = 4m + 1
2

square of any + ve int eger is of the form 4q or 4q + 1

Ans11.

We find the HCF of 144 and 90

144 = 90 1 + 54
90 = 54 1 + 36
54 = 36 1 + 18
36 = 18 2 + 0

HCF = 18

So, greatest number of cartons is 18.

Ans12.

Let three consecutive numbers be x, (x + 1) and (x + 2)

Let x = 6q + r ; 0 r < 6
x = 6q, 6q + 1, 6q + 2, 6q + 3, 6q + 4, 6q + 5

product of x( x + 1)( x + 2) = 6q(6q + 1)(6q + 2)

if x = 6q then which is divisible by 6
if x = 6q + 1
= (6q + 1)(6q + 2)(6q + 3)
= 2(3q + 1).3(2q + 1)(6q + 1)
= 6(3q + 1).(2q + 1)(6q + 1)
which is divisible by 6

if x = 6q + 2
= (6q + 2)(6q + 3)(6q + 4)
= 3(2q + 1).2(3q + 1)(6q + 4)
= 6(2q + 1).(3q + 1)(6q + 1)
which is divisible by 6
