Question

find the largest number which divides 245 and 1029 leaving reminder 5 in each case ( can you solve this question in class sixth standard) (easily)​

Answer 1

Answer:

Ans 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 5 from each number and then find the H.C.F.

245−5=240 and 1029−5=1024

H.C.F(240,1024) by Euclid's division lemma a=bq+r

a=1024,b=240

1024=240×4+64

240=64×3+48

64=48×1+16

48=16×3+0

H.C.F=16

Hence the required number =16
