Question

The greatest number which divides 159. 300 and 531 leaving remainder 9, 10 and 11 respectively​

Answer 1

Answer:

There is no such number

Step-by-step explanation

let the number be x,

therefore,  159/x leaves the remainder 9

hence 150-9 =150/x leaves no remainder

and if x divides 150 with no remainder, x will divide 300 too

but it contradicts the fact that 300 divided by x  leaves remainder 10,

hence in given circumstances there is no such number
