Question

Find the largest number which divides 70 and 125, leaving remainders 5 and 8 respectively

Answer 1

Answer: 13

Step-by-step explanation:

First subtract the respective remainders from the given numbers.

70 - 5 = 65

125 - 8 = 117

Now find the HCF of 65,117

65 = 5 * 13

117 = 3 * 3 * 13

HCF = 13

So, '13' is the largest number which divides 70,125 to leave remainders 5,8 respectively.
