Question

Find the greatest number which divides 99 291 259 leaving remainder 3 in each case

Answer 1

Answer:

The number is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we need to find the highest common factor of these 3 numbers

99 = 3×3×11

291= 3×97

259= 7× 37

The highest common factor of all the three numbers is 1 as they don't have any numbers in common adding 3 to the H.C.F we get the desired number which is 4
