Question

is the
which largest
énactly.

number that divides each one of
1032​

Answer 1

Answer:

240

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the largest number when divides 248 and 1032, the remainder is 8 in each case. 248 - 8 = 240 and 1032 - 8 = 1024 are completely divisible by the required number. Therefore, it is the HCF of 240 and 1024.

Answer 2

Answer:16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the largest number when divides 248 and 1032, the remainder is 8 in each case.

248 - 8 = 240 and 1032 - 8 = 1024 are completely divisible by the required number.

Therefore, it is the HCF of 240 and 1024.

Prime factorization of 240 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 3 * 5

Prime factorization of 1024 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2.

HCF(240,1024) = 2 * 2 * 2 * 2

                         = 16.
