In Class 10 Mathematics, under the chapter Real Numbers, Euclid’s Division Lemma introduces the relationship a = bq + r, where a and b are positive integers, q is the quotient, and the remainder r satisfies 0 ≤ r < b. Students learn how repeated division forms Euclid’s division algorithm and use it to find the highest common factor (HCF) of two numbers. The topic also strengthens understanding of divisibility, quotients, remainders, and the logical steps used in number-theory proofs.

Question 1ExpertLevel 5
According to Euclid’s division lemma, what are the correct quotient and remainder when 4961 is divided by 238?
Correct answer: A
Step 1: Find the nearest lower multiple of 238 below 4961. Step 2: (238\times20=4760), so the remainder is (4961-4760=201). Step 3: Since the remainder is smaller than 238, this is the valid Euclidean form.
If a number gives quotient 46 when divided by 87, what is the greatest possible value of that number?
Correct answer: B
Step 1: The number is of the form (87\times46+r), where (0\le r<87). Step 2: The greatest remainder is 86, so the number is (4002+86=4088). Step 3: For the greatest value, the remainder is always one less than the divisor.
If a number gives quotient 23 when divided by 143, what is the least possible value of that number?
Correct answer: A
Step 1: The number is (143\times23+r). Step 2: For the least value, the remainder is 0, so the number is (143\times23=3289). Step 3: In least-value questions, taking the remainder as zero is the clearest method.
Which option gives the correct Euclidean form of dividing 6127 by 391?
Correct answer: C
Step 1: In standard form, the remainder must be from 0 to 390. Step 2: (391\times15=5865), so (6127=5865+262). Step 3: A negative remainder or a remainder greater than 391 does not make the correct Euclidean form.
If (x=67q+64), what is the remainder when (x+140) is divided by 67?
Correct answer: B
Step 1: The remainder of (x) is 64. Step 2: 140 leaves remainder 6 when divided by 67, so the total remainder is (64+6=70). Step 3: Since (70=67+3), the final remainder is 3.
If (n) leaves remainder 31 when divided by 43, what is the remainder when (9n+22) is divided by 43?
Correct answer: B
Step 1: Replace (n) by its remainder 31. Step 2: The remainder of (9n+22) comes from (9\times31+22=301). Step 3: Since (301=43\times7+0), the remainder is 0.
If a number leaves remainder 16 when divided by 19, what is the remainder when its square is divided by 19?
Correct answer: A
Step 1: The square remainder comes from dividing (16^2=256) by 19. Step 2: (256=19\times13+9), so the remainder is 9. Step 3: In square questions, square only the remainder instead of the full number.
Which is the correct list of all possible forms of a positive integer when divided by 17?
Correct answer: A
Step 1: On division by 17, remainders can be from 0 to 16. Step 2: Therefore, all forms are from (17q) to (17q+16). Step 3: Include zero remainder, but do not include 17.
If (a=97q+96), what is the remainder when (a+1) is divided by 97?
Correct answer: D
Step 1: The remainder of (a) is 96, one less than 97. Step 2: Adding 1 gives (97q+97=97(q+1)). Step 3: The number becomes exactly divisible by 97, so the remainder is 0.
In Euclid’s division lemma, if the divisor is 144, what is the greatest possible value of the remainder?
Correct answer: B
Step 1: The remainder condition is (0\le r<144). Step 2: The greatest integer smaller than 144 is 143. Step 3: The remainder is never equal to the divisor.
If a number leaves remainder 58 when divided by 59, what remainder will nine times the number leave when divided by 59?
Correct answer: A
Step 1: For nine times the number, the remainder part is (9\times58=522). Step 2: (522=59\times8+50), so the remainder is 50. Step 3: After multiplication, always reduce the result below the divisor.
Which option gives the correct remainder when 9264 is divided by 359?
Correct answer: A
Step 1: Find the nearest lower multiple of 359 below 9264. Step 2: (359\times25=8975), so the remainder is (9264-8975=289). Step 3: With large numbers, the nearest lower multiple method saves time.
If a number leaves remainder 11 when divided by 18, what is the remainder when its cube is divided by 18?
Correct answer: C
Step 1: For the cube, check (11^3=1331). Step 2: (1331=18\times73+17), so the remainder is 17. Step 3: In power questions, reduce remainders repeatedly to keep the calculation simple.
Which statement is correct when an integer is divided by 32?
Correct answer: B
Step 1: In Euclid’s lemma, (0\le r<b). Step 2: Here (b=32), so the remainder can be from 0 to 31. Step 3: Include 0 in the list of remainders and do not include 32.
If (p=23q+19), what is the remainder when (7p-18) is divided by 23?
Correct answer: A
Step 1: The remainder of (p) is 19. Step 2: The remainder of (7p-18) comes from (7\times19-18=115). Step 3: Since (115=23\times5), the final remainder is 0.
If (a=37q+32) and (b=37p+35), what is the remainder when (ab) is divided by 37?
Correct answer: B
Step 1: For multiplication, multiply the remainders 32 and 35. Step 2: (32\times35=1120), and (1120=37\times30+10). Step 3: In product questions, the answer is the final remainder, not the full product.
If a number leaves remainder 6 when divided by 13, what is the remainder when its cube is divided by 13?
Correct answer: B
Step 1: For the cube, check (6^3=216). Step 2: (216=13\times16+8), so the remainder is 8. Step 3: In powers, working with small remainders avoids large calculations.
When an integer is divided by 11, what remainders can its square have?
Correct answer: A
Step 1: On division by 11, remainders can be from 0 to 10. Step 2: Their distinct square remainders are 0, 1, 3, 4, 5, and 9. Step 3: In square-remainder questions, making a short list of possible remainders is useful.
If (N) leaves remainder 39 when divided by 47, what is the remainder when (N+102) is divided by 47?
Correct answer: A
Step 1: The remainder of (N) is 39. Step 2: 102 leaves remainder 8 when divided by 47. Step 3: The total remainder is (39+8=47), so the final remainder is 0.
Which option shows an invalid remainder for Euclid’s division lemma when the divisor is 69?
Correct answer: C
Step 1: When the divisor is 69, the remainder can be from 0 to 68. Step 2: 69 is equal to the divisor, so it cannot be a remainder. Step 3: In definition-based questions, check the condition (r<b) first.
Step 1: (412\times23=9476) and (412\times24=9888). Step 2: The nearest lower multiple below 9876 is 9476, so the remainder is (400). Step 3: Since the remainder is less than 412, it is valid.
If (t=46q+37), what is the remainder when (6t+17) is divided by 46?
Correct answer: B
Step 1: The remainder of (t) is 37. Step 2: The remainder part of (6t+17) is (6\times37+17=239). Step 3: (239=46\times5+9), so the final remainder is 9.
If a number leaves remainder 15 when divided by 73, what is the remainder when thirteen times the number is divided by 73?
Correct answer: B
Step 1: For thirteen times the number, the remainder part is (13\times15=195). Step 2: (195=73\times2+49), so the final remainder is 49. Step 3: After multiplication, reduce the result by the divisor to make a valid remainder.
