Real Number
Q.1. Find HCF and LCM of 378, 180 and 420 by prime factorization method. Is HCF X
LCM of these numbers equal to the product of given three numbers?
Solution:
378= 33 x 2 x 7
180= 32 x 22 x 5
420= 3 x 22 x 5 x 7
HCF = 3 X 2 =6
LCM = 33 x 22 x 5 x 7 =3780
HCF x LCM = 3780 x 6 = 22,680
Product of numbers = 378 x 180 x 420 = 28576800
No HCF x LCM is not equal to product of three numbers

Q2. A woman wants to organise her birthday party. She was happy on her birthday but
there was a problem that she does not want to serve fast food to her guests because
She is very health conscious. She as 15 apples and 40 bananas at home and decided
to serve them. She wants to distribute fruits among guests. She does not want to
discriminate among guests so she decided to distribute equally among all. So
i. How many guests can she invite?
ii. How many apples and bananas will each guest get?
Solution:
(i)HCF of(15,40) =5
Fruits will be distributed equally among 5 guests
(ii) Out of 15 apples each guest will get 15 /5 = 3 apples
Out of 40 banana each guest will get 40/5 =8 bananas

Q3. A charitable trust donates 28 different books of Maths,16 different books of science
and 12 different books of Social Science to the poor students. Each student is given
maximum number of books of only one subject of his interest and each student got
equal number of books
i. Find the number of books each student got.
ii. Find the total number of students who got books.
Solution:
(i) HCF of 28,16 and 12 is 4
Therefore maximum number of books each student get is 4 (2)
(ii) Number of maths books 28/4 = 7
Number of science books 16/4 = 4
Number of social science = 12/4 = 3
Total books = 7 + 4 + 3 =14 (2)
Q.4. When the marbles in a bag are divided evenly between two friends, there is one
marble left over When the same marbles are divided evenly among three friends,
there is one marble left over. When the marbles are divided evenly among five
friends, there is one marble left over.
i. What is the least possible number of marbles in the bag?
ii. What is another possible number of marbles in the bag?
Solution:SOLUTION:
(i) LCM of 2,3 and 5 = 30
Thus 31 marbles are there in the bag

(ii) If we add 1 in multiple of 30 we will get another possible number of


marble. These are 61,91,121,...

Q.5. Prove that 3 + 2√5 is irrational.


Solution:
Let us assume on the contrary that 3 + 2√5 is rational. Then, there exist co-prime
positive integers a and b such that
3 + 2√5 = a/b
2√5 = a/b – 3
√5 = (a – 3b)/2b
Since, a and b are integers and thus (a – 3b)/2b is rational number. Thus √5 is rational but this
contradicts the fact that √5 is irrational. So, our assumption is incorrect. Hence, 3 + 2√5 is an
irrational number.
