REASONING AND ASSERTION
Q.1. Assertion: The H.C.F. of two numbers is 16 and their product is 3072. Then their L.C.M. = 162.
Reason: If a and b are two positive integers, then H.C.F. × L.C.M. = a × b.
Q.3. Assertion: A number N when divided by 15 gives the remainder 2. Then the remainder is same
when N is divided by 5.
Reason: √3 is an irrational number.
Q.5. 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.
Q.7. Assertion: The addition of rational number and irrational number is equal to irrational number.
Reason: The sum of irrational number and rational number is always rational number.
Q.9. Assertion: If the LCM of a and 18 is 36 and HCF of a and 18 is 2, then a=4
Reason: 2x36=ax18 2x36/18=a a=4
Q.10. Assertion: The given pair of nos. 231 and 396 are coprime to each other.
Reason: 231, 396 have only 1as the common factor.
Q.11. Assertion : If product of two numbers is 5780 and there HCF is 17, then their LCM is 340.
Reason : HCF is always a factor of LCM.
Q.12. Assertion : The HCF of two numbers is 5 and their product is 150. Then their LCM is 40.
Reason : For any two positive integers a and b, HCF(a, b) x LCM(a, b) = a x b.
Q.15. Assertion : The HCF of two numbers is 13 and their product is 2366. Then their LCM is 180.
Reason : For any two positive integers a and b, HCF(a, b) x LCM(a, b) = a x b
