Question

if the HCF of 65 and 117 is expressed in the form of 65 M - 117 then the value of M​

Answer 1

Hi..

65 = 5 × 13
117 = 3 × 3 × 13
▪HCF = 13

GIVEN, HCF = 65M -117

13 = 65M-117
13 + 117 = 65M
130 = 65M
113/65 = M
$\huge{M = 2}$

Answer 2

The HCF of 65 and 117 is 13.

So, 13=65M - 117

13+117=65M

130=65M

M=130/65

M=2

therefore the value of M is 2.
