Question

find the largest number that divided 232and157 leaving a remainder of 7
​

Answer 1

Answer:

75 is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

232 divided by 75 will give 3 as quotient and 7 as remainder.

Likewise when 157 is divided by 75 we will get 2 as quotient and 7 as remainder.

Answer 2

232-7=225

157-7=150

HCF of 225 & 150 = 75

then ; 225÷75

quotient =3 & remainder =7

then ; 150÷75

quotient =2 & remainder =7

therefore the answer is 75 is the largest number which can divide 232 & 157 leaving the remainder 7
