1.Use Euclid’s division algorithm to find the HCF of:

(i) 135 and 225
Ans. Start with the larger integer, that is, 225. Apply the division lemma to 225 and 135, we get
                                           225 – 135 x 1 + 90
Since the remainder 90 ≠ 0!, we apply the division lemma to 135 and 90, we get
                                           135 – 90 x 1 + 45
We consider the new divisor 90 and the new remainder 45, and apply the division lemma to get
                                           90 – 45 x 2 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops.
Since the divisor at this stage is 45, the HCF of 225 and 135 is 45.

(ii) 196 and 38220
Ans. Start with the larger integer, that is, 38220. Apply the division lemma to 38220 and 196, we get
                               38220 – 196 x 195 + 0
The remainder is zero, so our procedure stops.
Since the divisor is 196, the HCF of 38220 and 196 is 196.

(iii) 867 and 255
Ans. Start with the larger integer, that is, 867. Apply the division lemma, we get
                                          867 – 255 x 3 + 102
Since the remainder 102 ≠ 0!, we apply the division lemma to 255 and 102, to get
                                          255 – 102 x 2 + 51
We, consider the new divisor 102 and the new remainder 51, and apply the division lemma, we get
                                          102 – 51 x 2 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops.
Since the divisor at this stage is 51, the HCF of 867 and 255 is 51.

2. Show that any positive odd integer is of the form q6 + 1, or q6 + 3, or q6 + 5, where q is some integer.
Ans. Let us consider a positive odd integer as a. On dividing a by 6, let q be the quotient and r be the remainder.
Using Euclid’s lemma, we have
    a – 6q + r where 0 ≤ r < 6 i.e., 0 1, ……6
    a – 6q + 0 = 6
or a – 6q + 1
or a – 6q + 2
or a – 6q + 3
or a – 6q + 4
or a – 6q + 5
But, a 6q =, a – 6q + 2, a – 6q + 4 are even values of a.
[6q – 2 (3q) – 2m1, 6q + 2 – 2 ( 3q + 1) -2m₂, 6q + 4 – 2 (3q + 2) – 2m₃
But a being an odd integer, we have,
    a – 6q + 1
or a – 6q + 3
or a – 6q + 5

3. An army contingent of 616 members is to march behind an army band of 32 members in a parade. The two groups are to march in the same number of columns. What is the maximum number of columns in which they can march?
Ans. By applying the Euclid’s division lemma, we can find the maximum number of columns in which an army contingent of 616 members can march behind an army band of 32 members in a parade. HCF of 616 and 32 is equal to maximum number of columns in which 616 and 32 members can march.
Since 616 > 32, we apply the division lemma to 616 and 32, we get
          616 – 32 x 19 + 8
Since the remainder 80!, we apply the division lemma to 32 and 8, to get
         32 – 8 x 4 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 8, the HCF of 616 and 32 is 8.
Therefore, the maximum number of columns in which an army contingent of 616 members can march behind an army band of 32 members in a parade is 8.
           a²  = 9q² = 3 (3q²) = 3m
where, m   = 3q³                  [From (i)]
Case-II r   = 1, a² – 9q² + 6q + 1 -3 (3q² + 2q) + 1
                – 3m + 1
where, m   – 3q² + 2q             [From (i)]
Case-III r  = 1, a² – 9q³ + 6q + 1 – 3 (3q² + 2q) +1
                – 3m + 1
where, m   – (3q² + 4q + 1)    [From (i)]
Hence, square of any positive integer is either of the form m3 or 3m + 1 for some integer m.

5.Use Euclid’s division lemma to show that the cube of any positive integer is of the form m9, 9m + 1 or 9m + 8.
Ans. Let us consider an arbitrary positive integer a such that it is in the form of 3q, (3q + 1) or (3q + 2).
Case 1 : a = 3q,
For, a = 3q, a3 (3q)³ = q³ = 9 (9q³)
        = 9m                                  …(1)
Here we have substituted 3q³ = m , where m is an integer.
Case 2 : a – 3q + 1
For, a – 3q + 1, a³ – (3q + 1)³
         – 27q³ + 27q³ + 9q + 1
         – 9 (3q³ + 3q² + q) + 1
        9m + 1                               …(2)
Here we have substituted (3q³ + 3q² + q) – m, where m is an integer.
Case 3 : a – 3q + 2
For, a – 3q + 2, a³ – (3q + 2)³
      27q³ + 54q² + 36q + 8
     -9(3q³ +6q² + 4q) + 8
      9m + 8                               …(3)
Here we have substituted (3q² + 6q² + 4q), where m is an integer.
From (1), (2), (3) we have :
        a³ = 9m, (9m + 1) or (9m + 8)
Thus, cube of any positive integer can be in the form
9m, (9m + 1) or (9m + 8) for some integer m.

(i) 26 and 91

Ans. 26 = 2 x 13

Ans. 91 = 7 x 13
Therefore,
      LCM (26,91) = 2 x 7 x 13
      HCF (26, 91) = 13
Verification:
      LCM X HCF = 182 X 13 = 2366
    and 26 X 91 = 2366
i.e. LCM X HCF = Product of two numbers.

(ii) 510 and 92

Ans. 510 = 2 X 5 X 3 X 17

Ans. 92 = 2 X 2 X 23 X 17
Therefore,
LCM (510,92) = 2 X 2 X 5 X 3 X 17 X 23
= 23460
HCF (510, 92) = 2
Verification:
       LCM X HCF = 23460 X 2 = 46920
   and 510 X 92 = 46920
i.e., LCM X HCF = Product of two numbers

(iii) 336 and 54

Ans. 336 = 2 X 2 X 2 X2 3 X 7
             = 24 X 3 X 7

Ans. 54= 2 X 3 X 3 X3 = 2 X 33
Therefore,
     LCM (336, 52) = 24 X 33 X 7 = 3024
     HCF (336, 52) = 2 X 3 = 6
Verification:
     LCM X HCF 3024 X 6 = 18144
    and 336 X 54 = 18144
i.e., LCM X HCF = Product of two numbers.

3. Find the LCM and HCF of the following integers by applying the prime factorisation method.

(i) 12, 15 and 21

Ans. 12 = 2 X 2 X 3 = 2² X 3

So, 21 = 3 X 7
Therefore,
HCF (12, 15, 21) = 3
LCM (12, 15, 21) = 22 X 3 X 5 X 7 X = 420

(ii) 17, 23 and 29
Ans. 17 = 17
23 = 23
29 = 29
Therefore,
HCF (17, 23, 29) = 1
LCM (17, 23, 29) = 17 X 23 X 19 = 11339

(iii) 8, 9 and 25

Ans. 8 = 2 X 2 X 2 = 2³

Ans. 9 = 3 X 3 = 3²

Ans. 25 = 5 X 5 = 5²
Therefore,
HCF (8, 9, 25) = 1
LCM (8, 9, 25) 2³ X 3² X 5² = 1800

4. Given that HCF (306, 657) = 9 , find LCM (306, 657)
Ans. As we know that,
LCM X HCF = Product of numbers

5. Check whether 6ⁿ can end with the digit 0 for any natural number n.
Ans. If the number 6n for any natural number n, end with digit 0, then it would be divisible by 5. That is, the prime factorisation of 6n would contain the prime 5. This is not possible because 6n = (2 X 3)ⁿ = 2ⁿ X 3ⁿ so the only primes in the factorisation of 6n are 2 and 3 and the uniqueness of the Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic guarantees that there are no other primes in the factorisation of 6ⁿ. So, there is no natural number n for which 6n ends

6. Explain why 7 X 11 X 13 + 13 and 7 X 6 X 5 X 4 X 3 X 2 X 1 + 5 are composite numbers.

(i) 7 X 11 X 13 + 13
Ans. 7 X 11 X 13 + 13 – (7 X 11 X 1) X 13
– (77 + 1) X 13 = 78 X 13
= (2 X 3 X 13) X 13
   78 = 2 X 3 X 13
   2 X 3 X 13²
Since, 7 X 11 X 13 + 13 can be expressed as a product of primes, therefore, it is a composite number.

(ii) 7 X 6 X 5 X 4 X 3 X 2 X 1 + 5
Ans. 7 X 6 X 5 X 4 X 3 X 2 X 1 + 5
  (7 X 6 X 4 X 3 X 2 X 1 + 1) X 5
  (1008 + 1) X 5 = 1009 X 5
    = 5 X 1009
Since, 7 X 6 X 5 X 4 X 3 X 2 X 1 + 5 can be expressed as a product of primes, therefore, it is a composite number.

7. There is a circular path around a sports field. Sonia takes 18 minutes to drive one round of the field, while Ravi takes 12 minutes for the same. Suppose they both start at the same point and at the same time, and go in the same direction. After how many minutes will they meet again at the starting point?
Ans. By taking LCM of time taken (in minutes) by Sonia and Ravi, we can get the actual number of minutes after which they meet again at the starting point after both start as same point and at the same time, and go in the same direction

18 = 2 X 3 X 3 = 2 X 3²

12 = 2 X 2 X 3 = 22 X 3
     = 22 X 3
LCM(18, 12) = 22 X 32 = 36
Therefore, both Sonia and Ravi will meet again at the starting point after 36 minutes.

1. Prove that 5 is irrational.
Ans. Let √5 be a rational number.
So, we can find co-prime integers a and b (≠ 0) such that
  √5 = a/b
         √5b = a
Squaring on both sides, we get
5B² = a²
Therefore, 5 divides a²
Therefore, 5 divides a
So, we can write
a = 5c for some integer c.
Substituting for a, we get
5b² = 25c²
b² = 5c²
This means that 5 divides b², and so 5 divides b. Therefore, a and b have at least 5 as a common factor. But this contradicts the fact that a and b have no common factor other than 1. This contradiction arose because of our incorrect assumption that √5 is rational. So, we conclude that √5 is irrational

2. Prove that 3 + 2√5 is irrational.
Ans. Let, 3 + 2√5 is rational number.
That is, we can find co-prime integers a and b (b ≠ 0)
Such that, 3 + 2√5 = a/b where b ≠ 0
Therefore, a/b – 3 = 2 √5
    a – 3b/b = 2√5
    a – 3b/2b = √5
    a/2b – 3/2 = √5
Since a and b are integers, we get a/2b – 3/2 is rational, and so √5 is rational.
But this contradicts the fact that √5 is irrational.
This contradiction has arisen because of our incorrect assumption that 3 + 2√5+ is rational.
So, we conclude that 3 + 2√5+ is irrational
