Question

find the greatest number which whe n divides 286 and 1250 leaving remainders 10&8 respectively

Answer 1

ANSWER

STEP BY STEP explanation

In this type of question ,first we subtract the remainder from the given number and then we find the HCF of number obtained and the HCF is the answer of that question.

So let's do this,

Given numbers are

=> 286 and 1250.

and their remainders

=> 10 and 8 respectively.

so,

=> 286-10

= 276

and

=> 1250-8

=> 1242

so

Now find HCF

276)1242( 4
1104
________
138)276(2
276
______

hence

HCF=138

Answer 2

Here..

We have to find it's HCF..

HCF is the answer of this question..

So, here we go..

$\bold{Now,}$

Given numbers are $286 \: and \: 1250$

$\bold{And,}$

Their remainders are $10 \: and \: 8$

$\bold{Now,}$

$286 - 10 = 76$

$\bold{And,}$

$1250 - 8 = 1242$

Find HCF..
