    Question

    If the HCF of 85 and 153 is expressible in the form of 85x - 153 then the value of x is:

    A.

    3

    B.

    5

    C.

    1

    D.

    2

    Correct option is D

    Given:

    The HCF of 85 and 153 is expressible in the form of 85x - 153

    Solution:

    HCF of 85 and 153 = 17

    Now given HCF can be expressed in the form of 85x − 153

    So, 17 = 85x − 153

    => 85x = 170

    => x = 2

    Thus, the value of x is 2.
