a) x = 10; y = 14 b) x = 21; y = 84
c) x = 21; y = 25 d) x = 10; y = 40
3. If two positive integers and are expressible in terms of primes as
a = p6 q 3 and b = p 4q8, then which of the following is true?
a) HCF = p 5q2 × LCM b) LCM = p 2q5 × HCF
c) LCM = p 5q 2 × HCF d) HCF = p 2q 5 × LCM
Directions for question number 4: In the following questions, a statement of
assertion (A) is followed by a statement of reason (R). Mark the correct choice as:
(a) Both assertion (A) and reason (R) are true and reason (R) is the correct
explanation of assertion (A).
(b) Both assertion (A) and reason (R) are true but reason (R) is not the correct
explanation of assertion (A).
(c) Assertion (A) is true but reason (R) is false
(d) Assertion (A) is false but reason (R) is true.
4. Assertion: For any two positive integers p and q, HCF (p, q) × LCM (p, q) = p × q
Reason: If the HCF of two numbers is 5 and their product is 150, then their LCM
is 40
a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation for A.
b) Both A and R are true and R is not the correct explanation for A.
c) A is true but R is false.
d) A is false but R is true

integer. (ANS HCF 3p and LCM 18 p )
14. If p is a prime number then find the LCM of p, 𝑝2 and 𝑝3 (ANS 𝑝3)
15. Case Study Based Question:
The department of Computer Science and Technology is conducting an
International Seminar. In the seminar, the number of participants in Mathematics,
Science and Computer Science are 60, 84 and 108 respectively. The coordinator
has made the arrangement such that in each room, the same number of
participants are to be seated and all of them being in the same subject. Also, they
allotted the separate room for all the official other than participants.
Read the above information and answer the following questions:
(i) Find the total number of participants
(ii) Find the minimum number of rooms required, if in each room, the same
number of participants are to be seated and all of them being in the same
subject.
(iii) find the minimum number of rooms required for all the participants and
officials.
(ANSWERS )
i) 252
ii) 21
iii) 22
