Question

Find the greatest number of 4 digits and the least number of 5 digits that has 248 for their G.C.M.​

Answer 1

Answer:

9996 and 10143

Step-by-step explanation:

HCF=147

Let the greatest 4 digit number be X

Solution in Parametrical form can be written as

X=147 × t where t is any Natural number.

Take t=68

X=147*68=9996; 9996 is greatest 4 digit number.

So when we take t=68+1,the number will be 5 digit smallest number.

5 digit Smallest Number =147*69=10143

Therefore the ANSWERS=9996 & 10143
