Question

find the largest Number that divides 232 and157 leavings remainder of 7​

Answer 1

Answer:

232-7=225

157-7=150

Hcf of 225 and 150=75

Hence 75 is the largest number that divides 232 and 157 and leaves 7 as remainder

Answer 2

First subtract the remainder from both the numbers.

=>232-7=225 & 157-7=150

Now take the HCF of the obtained numbers

150=3*2*5*5

225=3*3*5*5

Now HCF=5*5*3=75

And here is your required answer.
