Part B: Objective Questions (1 Mark Each)
Choose the correct answer and write the option (a/b/c/d)
(1) The HCF of 42 and 70 is:
(a) 7 (b) 14 (c) 21 (d) 28
Correct! 42 = 2 × 3 × 7, 70 = 2 × 5 × 7, so HCF = 2 × 7 = 14.
(2) Prime factorization of 84 is:
(a)
Correct! 84 = 4 × 21 =
(3) The LCM of 6 and 8 is:
(a) 12 (b) 18 (c) 24 (d) 48
Correct! 6 = 2 × 3, 8 =
(4) Which of the following is NOT a prime number?
(a) 13 (b) 17 (c) 19 (d) 21
Correct! 21 = 3 × 7, so it's composite, not prime.
(5) According to Euclid's division lemma, for given integers a and b (with a > b), there exist integers q and r such that:
(a) a = bq + r, 0 ≤ r < b (b) a = qb + r, 0 < r ≤ b (c) a = qb + r, 0 ≤ r ≤ b (d) None of these
Correct! Euclid's division lemma: a = bq + r, where 0 ≤ r < b.
(6) HCF of 8 and 12 is:
(a) 2 (b) 3 (c) 4 (d) 6
Correct! 8 =
(7) The LCM of 14 and 21 is:
(a) 28 (b) 42 (c) 56 (d) 84
Correct! 14 = 2 × 7, 21 = 3 × 7, so LCM = 2 × 3 × 7 = 42.
(8) The smallest prime number is:
(a) 0 (b) 1 (c) 2 (d) 3
Correct! 2 is the smallest and only even prime number.
(9) The product of HCF and LCM of 8 and 12 is:
(a) 48 (b) 96 (c) 24 (d) 36
Correct! HCF = 4, LCM = 24, so HCF × LCM = 4 × 24 = 96 = 8 × 12.
(10) Which of these is irrational?
(a)
Correct!
