Question

The two largest numbers of four digits having 531 as their HCF are
1) 9231, 9762 2) 9027, 9558
3) 9037, 9568​

Answer 1

Answer:

OPTION B IS CORRECT

Step-by-step explanation:

The largest number of four digits = 9999 Dividing 9999 by 531 we get

∴∴ Greatest number of four digits divisible by 531

 = 9558 - 531 = 9558 The other number = 9558 - 531 = 9027

Answer 2

Answer is option 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Greatest 4 digit number is 9999.

Given,HCF=531

• We know that for two numbers A and B if C is the HCF,then these two numbers must divisible by their HCF.

In the given question HCf=531,

⇒The two numbers which are divisible by 531 will be the correct pair of numbers.

• If more than two options are multiple of given HCF,then to find greatest pair of number,consider the greatest pair.

• In this question only option 2) is the correct answer,because 9027 and 9558 are mutiple of 531.
