Ques:- Which greatest number will divide 3026 and 5053 leaving remainders 11 and 13 respectively?
A. 15
B. 30
C. 40
D. 45
Recent Answer : Added by Vijay Vinod On 2022-09-16 14:52:15:

Answer is 45
First we need to subtract those reminders from the respective numbers, then we have to find the hcf of two numbers(numbers got from the subtraction) then you will get the answer.
So,
After subtraction you will get
3026-11 = 3015
5053-13 = 5040
HCF of these two numbers
5 | 3015 5040
3 | 603 1008
3 | 201 336
| 67 112
We can’t find a common diviser since 67 is a prime number
So the HCF = 5 * 3 * 3
= 45
5*3*3 = 45
