The greatest number which divides the numbers x, y and z leaving remainders a, b and c respectively, is given by
HCF of (x − a), (y − b) and (z − c).
The greatest number that will divide x, y and z leaving
the same remainder in each case is given by
HCF of |x − y|,|y − z|and|z − x|.
The least number which when divided by x, y and z leaves the same remainder k in each case is given by
LCMof(x,y,z)+k.
The least number which when divided by x, y and z
leaves the remainders a, b and c respectively, is given by
LCM of (x, y, z) − k, where k = (x − a) = ( y − b) = ( z − c).
The greatest n-digit number which when divided by x, y and z leaves
(i) no remainder, then
Required number = ___
(ii) remainder k, then
Required number = ____
(i) no remainder, then
Required number = Greatest n-digit number −R
(ii) remainder k, then
Required number = [Greatest n-digit number −R]+ k
where, R is the remainder obtained when n-digit greatest number is divided by the LCM of x, y and z.
The smallest n-digit number which when divided by x, y
and z leaves
(i) no remainder, then
Required number = ___
(ii) remainder k, then
Required number = _____
(i) no remainder, then
Required number = [Smallest n-digit number + (L − R)] (ii) remainder k, then
Required number = [Smallest n-digit number + (L − R)] + k where, R is the remainder obtained when n-digit smallest number isdividedbyLCMofx,y,zandL istheLCMofx,y,z.
f the price of a commodity is increased by x%, then reduction in consumption so as not to increase the
expenditure is
{x/(100+x)}100%
If the price of a commodity is decreased by x%, then increase in consumption so as not to decrease the
expenditure is
{x/(100-x)}100%
