Question

Give the greatest no which divides 926 and 2313 by leaving remainder 2 and 3points questionFast

Answer 1

When it divides 926, remainder = 2
so it divides = 926-2 = 924
When it divides 2313, remainder = 3
so it divides = 2313-3 = 2310

HCF of 924 and 2310= 462

So the answer is 462

Answer 2

The first no. divided by the greatest no. = 926 - remainder
                                                          = 926 - 2
                                                          = 924
The second no. divided by the greatest no. = 2313 - remainder
                                                               = 2313 - 3
                                                               = 2310
Therefore the HCF of 926 and 2310 = 462
So, the greatest no. is 462
