NAME: TOPIC: Real numbers worksheet-2

LEVEL-1

1. If the HCF of 657 and 963 is expressible in the form of 657p+963(-15) then find the value of p.
(Ans. 22)

2. 105 goats, 140 donkeys and 175 cows have to be taken across the river. There is only one boat
which will have to make many trips in order to do so. The lazy boat man has his own condi-
tions for transporting them. He insists that he will take the same number of animals in every
trip and they have to be of the same kind. He will naturally like to take the largest possible
number each time. Can you tell how many number of animals went in each trip?
(Ans. 35)

3. If two positive integers x and y are expressible in terms of primes as x= p2 q3, y=p3q what can
you say about their LCM and HCF? Is LCM a multiple of HCF?(p3q3,p2q)

4. The LCM and HCF of two numbers are 1001 and 7 respectively. How many such pairs are
possible? (Ans:2)

1
 p+ q p−q
5. If p and q are two odd positive integers such that p>q, then prove that and 2 is odd

1. Find the greatest number which divides 285 and 1249 leaving remainders 9 and 7 respectively.
(Ans.138)

2. The length, breadth and height of a room are 8 m 25 cm, 6 m 75 cm, 4 m 50 cm respectively. De-
termine the longest rod which can measure the three dimensions of the room exactly.
(Ans.75 cm)

3. Find the smallest number which leaves remainders 8 and 12 when divided by 28 and 32 respec-
tively. (Ans. 204)

4. Prove that 3+ √ 5 is an irrational number.

H.C.F= 65m +117n

LEVEL-3

1. For any positive integer n, prove that n3- n is divisible by 6.

2. Show that there is no positive integer n for which √ n−1+ √ n+ 1 is a rational number

3. If ‘a’ is prime and ‘b’ is composite number such that a+b = 31. Their L.C.M is 220.
Then find a & b. (Ans.11, 20)

 a
∧a+2 b
4. Let a and b be positive integers. Show that √ 2 always lie between b .
a+ b
