Exercise1.1 Q1.UseEuclid’sdivisionalgorithmtofindtheHCFof: I. 135and225 II. 196and38220 III. 867and255 Ans.(i)135and225 Since225>135,weapplythedivisionlemmato225and135toobtain 225=135×1+90 Sinceremainder90≠0,weapplythedivisionlemmato135and90to obtain 135=90×1+45 Weconsiderthenewdivisor90andnewremainder45,andapplythe divisionlemmatoobtain 90=2×45+0 Sincetheremainderiszero,theprocessstops. Sincethedivisoratthisstageis45, Therefore,theHCFof135and225is45. (ii)196and38220 Since38220>196,weapplythedivisionlemmato38220and196to obtain 38220=196×195+0 Sincetheremainderiszero,theprocessstops. Sincethedivisoratthisstageis196, Therefore,HCFof196and38220is196. (iii)867and255 Since867>255,weapplythedivisionlemmato867and255toobtain 867=255×3+102 Sinceremainder102≠0,weapplythedivisionlemmato255and102to obtain 255=102×2+51 Weconsiderthenewdivisor102andnewremainder51,andapplythe divisionlemmatoobtain 102=51×2+0 Sincetheremainderiszero,theprocessstops. Sincethedivisoratthisstageis51,Therefore, HCFof867and255is51. Q2. Showthatanypositiveoddintegerisoftheform6q+1,or6q+3,or6q+ 5,whereqissomeinteger. Ans. Letabeanypositiveintegerandb=6. Then,byEuclid’salgorithm,a=6q+rforsomeintegerq≥0,and r=0,1,2,3,4,5because0≤r<6. Therefore,a=6qor6q+1or6q+2or6q+3or6q+4or6q+5Also,6q +1=2×3q+1=2k1+1,wherek1isapositiveinteger 6q+3=(6q+2)+1=2(3q+1)+1=2k2+1,wherek2isaninteger 6q+5=(6q+4)+1=2(3q+2)+1=2k3+1,wherek3isaninteger Clearly, 6q+1,6q+3,6q+5areoftheform2k+1,wherekisaninteger. Therefore,6q+1,6q+3,6q+5arenotexactlydivisibleby2. Hence,theseexpressionsofnumbersareoddnumbers. Andtherefore,anyoddintegercanbeexpressedintheform6q+1,or6q +3,or6q+5 Q3 Anarmycontingentof616membersistomarchbehindanarmybandof 32membersinaparade.Thetwogroupsaretomarchinthesame numberofcolumns.Whatisthemaximumnumberofcolumnsinwhich theycanmarch? Ans. HCF(616,32)willgivethemaximumnumberofcolumnsinwhichthey canmarch. WecanuseEuclid’salgorithmtofindtheHCF. 616=32×19+8 32=8×4+0 TheHCF(616,32)is8. Therefore,theycanmarchin8columnseach. Q4 UseEuclid’sdivisionlemmatoshowthatthesquareofanypositive integeriseitherofform3mor3m+1forsomeintegerm. [Hint:Letxbeanypositiveintegerthenitisoftheform3q,3q+1or3q+ 2.Nowsquareeachoftheseandshowthattheycanberewritteninthe form3mor3m+1.] Ans. Letabeanypositiveintegerandb=3. Thena=3q+rforsomeintegerq≥0 Andr=0,1,2because0≤r<3 Therefore,a=3qor3q+1or3q+2Or, a2=(3q)2or(3q+1)2or(3q+2)2 =(3q)2or9q2+6q+1or9q2+12q+4 =3x(3q2)or3×(32+2)+13×(32+4+1)+1 =3k1or3k2+1or3k3+1 Wherek1,k2,andk3aresomepositiveintegers Hence,itcanbesaidthatthesquareofanypositiveintegeriseitherofthe form3mor3m+1. Q5 UseEuclid’sdivisionlemmatoshowthatthecubeofanypositiveinteger isoftheform9m,9m+1or9m+8. Ans Letabeanypositiveintegerandb=3 a=3q+r,whereq≥0and0≤r<3 a=3qor3q+1or3q+2 Therefore,everynumbercanberepresentedasthesethreeforms.There arethreecases. Case1:Whena=3q, a3=(3q)3=27q3=9(3q3)=9m Wheremisanintegersuchthatm=3q3 Case2:Whena=3q+1, a3=(3q+1)3 a3=27q3+27q2+9q+1 a3=9(3q3+3q2+q)+1 a3=9m+1 Wheremisanintegersuchthatm=(3q3+3q2+q) Case3:Whena=3q+2, a3=(3q+2)3 a3=27q3+54q2+36q+8 a3=9(3q3+6q2+4q)+8 a3=9m+8 Wheremisanintegersuchthatm=(3q3+6q2+4q) Therefore,thecubeofanypositiveintegerisoftheform9m,9m+1,or 9m+8.
