And (1249 – 7) = 1242

∴ Now,

∴ H.C.F is = 138

Therefore,  the required number is 138.

Question no – (3)

Solution : 

Here,

(626 – 1) 625 (3127 – 2) = 3125

And, (15628 – 3) = 15625

∴ Now,

625 = 5 × 5 × 5 × 5

3125 = 5 × 5 × 5 × 5 × 5

15625 = 5 × 5 × 5 × 5 × 5 × 5

H.C.F is = (5 × 5 × 5 × 5) = 625

Therefore, the required number is 625.

Question no – (4)

Solution : 

In the question,

Room, Length = 8m 25 cm = 825 cm

breadth = 6 m 75 cm = 657 cm

Height = 4 cm 50 cm = 450

∴ Now,

Therefore, the length of the required rod is 75 cm.

Question no – (5)

Solution :

Given Courtyard,

length = 2016 cm.

breadth = 1560 cm.

Now,

H.C.F is = 24

Therefore, least possible number of stones is 24.

Question no – (6)

Solution :

Here,

length of tapes are 7 m, 3m 85 cm, 12 m 95 cm

= 700 m, 385 cm, 1295 cm,

Now, the Factors of,

= 700 = 2 × 2 × 5 × 7 × 5

= 385 = 5 × 11 × 7

= 1295 = 5 × 7 × 37

The H.C.F is,

= (5 × 7)

= 35

Therefore, the length of longest tape will be 35 cm.

Question no – (7)

Solution :

Acceding to the question,

105 = 5 × 3 × 7

140 = 2 × 2 × 5 × 7

175 = 5 × 5 × 7

H.C.F is = (5 × 7) = 35

Hence, 35 animals went in each thief.
