Find the greatest number that will divide 43, 91 and 183 so as to leave the same remainder in each case.

Find the greatest number that will divide 43, 91 and 183 so as to leave the same remainder in each case.

A. 4 B. 7
C. 9 D. 13





 Answer: Option A

 Explanation:

 Required number = H.C.F. of (91 - 43), (183 - 91) and (183 - 43)

      = H.C.F. of 48, 92 and 140 = 4.

 It takes 10 days for digging a trench of 100 m long, 50 m broad and 10 m deep.  What length of trench, 25 m broad and 15 m deep can be dug in 30 days ?       a) 400 m          b) 200 m          c) 100 m          d) 89m Expl : More days, more length (Direct)       Less breadth, more length (Indirect)       More depth, less length (Indirect       Days      10 : 30;       Breadth  25 : 50;                  : : 100 : x       Depth    15 : 10;                     :. 10 * 25* 15 * x = 30 *50 * 10 *100             x= (30*50*10*100)/10*25*15 = 400      So the required length = 400m
