Question

Greatest number that will divide 753 , 33, 87 leving 7 as a remainder in each case

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

first we subtract 7 from 753,33and87

753-7=746

33-7=26

87-7=80

Now,we find the HCF (746,26and80) :

746=26×28+18

26=18×1+8

18=8×2+2

8=2×4+0 here we get 0 so HCF we get 2

now,80=2×40+0

So,HCF (746,26and80)=2

Hence,the greatest number is 2 that divides753,33and87 leaves remainder 7 in each case.
