HOTS Questions Chapter 1 Real Numbers Class 10 Mathematics with Answers

Numbers are intellectual witnesses that belong only to mankind.

1. If the HCF of 657 and 963 is expressible in the form of 657x + 963x - 15 find x.

   (Ans:x=22)

Ans: Using Euclid’s Division Lemma

a= bq+r , o  ≤ r < b

963=657×1+306

657=306×2+45

306=45×6+36

45=36×1+9

36=9×4+0

∴ HCF (657, 963) = 9

now 9 = 657x + 963× (-15)

657x=9+963×15

=9+14445

657x=14454

x=14454/657

2. Express the GCD of 48 and 18 as a linear combination. (Ans: Not unique)
A=bq+r, where o ≤  r < b
48=18x2+12
18=12x1+6
12=6x2+0
∴ HCF (18,48) = 6
now 6= 18-12x1
6= 18-(48-18x2)
6= 18-48x1+18x2
6= 18x3-48x1
6= 18x3+48x(-1)
i.e. 6= 18x +48y
CBSE_Class_10_Math_Number_System_2
 
 
 
6= 18×3 +48×(-1)
=18×3 +48×(-1) + 18×48-18×48
=18(3+48)+48(-1-18)
=18×51+48×(-19)
6=18x+48y
 CBSE_Class_10_Math_Number_System_5
 
 
 
Hence, x and y are not unique.
 
3.  Prove that one of every three consecutive integers is divisible by 3. 
Ans:
n,n+1,n+2 be three consecutive positive integers
We know that n is of the form 3q, 3q +1, 3q + 2
So we have the following cases
 
Case – I when n = 3q
 
In the this case, n is divisible by 3 but n + 1 and n + 2 are not divisible by 3
 
Case -  II   When n = 3q + 1
Sub n = 2 = 3q +1 +2 = 3(q +1) is divisible by 3. but n and n+1 are not divisible by 3
 
Case – III When n = 3q +2
Sub n = 2 = 3q +1 +2 = 3(q +1) is divisible by 3. but n and n+1 are not divisible by 3
 
Hence one of n, n + 1 and n + 2 is divisible by 3
 
4.  Find the largest possible positive integer that will divide 398, 436, and 542 leaving remainder 7, 11, 15 respectively.
(Ans: 17) 
Ans: The required number is the HCF of the numbers 
Find the HCF of 391, 425 and 527 by Euclid’s algorithm
∴ HCF (425, 391) = 17
 
Now we have to find the HCF of 17 and 527
527 = 17 x 31 +0  
∴ HCF (17,527) = 17
∴ HCF (391, 425 and 527) = 17
 
5.  Find the least number that is  divisible by all  numbers between 1  and 10  (both inclusive). 
Ans:  The required number is the LCM of 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
∴ LCM = 2  ×  2  ×  3  ×  2  ×  3  ×  5  ×  7 = 2520
 
6.  Show that 571 is a prime number.
Ans: Let x=571==√x=√571 
Now 571 lies between the perfect squares of  (23)2 and (24)2
Prime numbers less than 24 are 2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19,23
Since  571 is not divisible by any of the above numbers
571 is a prime number
 
7.  If d is the HCF of 30, 72, find the value of x & y satisfying d = 30x + 72y.
(Ans:5, -2 (Not unique) 
Ans: Using Euclid’s algorithm, the HCF (30, 72)
72 = 30 ×   2 + 12
30 = 12 ×   2 + 6
12 = 6 ×   2 + 0
 
HCF (30,72) = 6
6=30-12×2
6=30-(72-30×2)2
6=30-2×72+30×4
6=30×5+72×-2
∴ x = 5, y = -2
Also 6 = 30 × 5 + 72 (-2) + 30 ×   72 – 30 ×   72 
Solve it, to get 
x = 77, y = -32
 
Hence, x and y are not unique 
 
8.  Show that the product of 3 consecutive positive integers is divisible by 6. 
Ans: Proceed as in question sum no. 3
 
9.  Show that for odd positive integer to be a perfect square, it should be of the form 8k +1. Let a=2m+1
Ans: Squaring both sides we get a2 = 4m (m +1) + 1
∴ product of two consecutive numbers is always even
m(m+1)=2k
a2=4(2k)+1 a2  = 8 k + 1
Hence proved
 
10. Find the greatest number of 6 digits exactly divisible by 24, 15 and 36. (Ans:999720) 
Ans: LCM of 24, 15, 36
LCM = 3 ×  2 ×  2 ×  2 ×  3 ×  5 = 360
 
Now, the greatest six digit number is 999999
Divide 999999 by 360
∴ Q = 2777 , R = 279
∴ the required number = 999999 – 279 = 999720 
 
11. If a and b are positive integers. Show that √2 always lies between
a/ b  and a − 2b / a + b

1. Find the largest positive integer that will divide 122,150 and 115 leaving remainder 5, 7 and 11 respectively.
Solution 1: 122-5 = 117 is exactly divisible by the required number
150-7 = 143,
115-11 = 104
So, required number is the HCF of 117,143,104        1 Mark
117 = 3x3x13
143 = 11x13
104 = 2x2x2x13

\HCF ( 117,143,104 ) = 13
Hence, required number is 13.      1 Mark

2. Use Euclid’s division algorithm to find the largest number which divides 957 and 1280 leaving remainder 5 in each case.
Solution 2: 957-5=952 and 1280-5= 1275,are completely divisible by required number.
Now find the HCF by Euclid division lemma,
1275 > 952 by apply division lemma
1275 = 952 x 1 + 323 ( since R≠ 0 )
952 = 323 x 2 + 306 ( since R≠ 0 )      1 Mark
323 = 306 x 1 + 17 ( since R ≠ 0)
306 = 17 x 18 + 0 here R = 0
Divisor in the last step is 17

\ HCF of 1275 and 952 is 17.

Hence required number is 17.       1 Mark

1 In a school there are two sections of class 10th.there are 40 students in 1st section and 48 students in second section. Determine the minimum number of books required for their class library so that they can be distributed equally among students of both sections.
Solution 1: Required number of books = LCM ( 40,48 )
40 = 2x2x2x5        1 Mark
48 = 2x2x2x2x3     1 Mark
LCM (40,48) = 2x2x2x2x3x5 = 240
Hence, required number of books are 240       1 Marks

2. In a morning walk Nirmaljeet, Puneet, Rajiv step off together, their steps measuring 240 cm , 90 cm, 120cm respectively. What is the minimum distance each should walk so that one can cover the distance in complete steps?
Solution 2: 240 = 2x2x2x2x3x5     1 MARK
90 = 2x3x3x5
120 = 2x2x2x3x5 1 Mark
LCM = 2x2x2x2x3x3x5 = 720
Hence required distance 720 cm. 1 Mark

3. The sets of mathematics, physics and physical education books have to be stacked in such a way that all the books are stored topic wise. The number of mathematics , physics and physical education books are 14 , 18 and 22. Determine the number of stacks of each books provided books are of the same thickness.
Solution 3: Firstly , to arrange the books as according to condition,
Find HCF of 14, 18 and 22.
14 = 2x7

18 = 2x3x3
22 = 2x11     1 Mark
HCF = 2
So ,there are only 2 books in each stack.    1 Mark
Number of stack of Mathematics books =2/14= 7
Number of stack of Physics books =2/18= 9
Number of stack of Physical Education books =2/22 = 11. 1 Mark
