Answer 1

Question:-

The numbers 525 and 3000 are both divisible only by 3, 5, 15,25 and 75. What is

HCF (525, 3000)? Justify your answer.

Answer :-

HCF of (525,3000) is 75 .

see, 525 and 3000 are divisible by 3,5,15,25,75 but HCF means Higest Common Factor and 75 is the highest amongst them.

another way of solving this question:-

by using Euler's Division Lemma

according to this, any number 'a' can be represented in the form: bx + c where a,b are real numbers.

lets take the example of your question:-

a=3000

b=525

3000=525*5 +375

525=375*1 +150

375=150*2+75

150=75*2+0

when c becomes 0 the number in the place of the bolded one is the HCF

 so the HCF(3000,525) is 75
