    Question

    Find the greatest number that divides 58, 75, and 97 leaving 4, 3 and 7 respectively as remainders.

    A.

    14

    B.

    18

    C.

    34

    D.

    2

    Correct option is B

    Given:

    Greatest number that divides 58, 75, and 97 leaving 4, 3, and 7 respectively as remainders.

    Solution:

    we first subtract the remainders from the numbers:

    58 - 4 = 54

    75 - 3 = 72

    97 - 7 = 90

    Now, we find the HCF (Highest Common Factor) of 54, 72, and 90.

    54 = 2 × 3³

    72 = 2³ × 3²

    90 = 2 × 3² × 5

    The HCF of 54, 72, and 90 is 2 × 3² = 18.

    Therefore, the greatest number that divides 58, 75, and 97 leaving 4, 3, and 7 respectively as remainders is 18.
