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 1MediumLevel 7
According to Euclid’s division lemma, what are the quotient and remainder when (157) is divided by (12)?
Correct answer: A
Step 1: (12 \times 13=156) and (12 \times 14=168). Step 2: (156) is the nearest smaller multiple of (12), so the remainder is (1). Step 3: In the correct answer, the remainder must be less than the divisor and not negative.
If (b=21) in (a=bq+r), which condition is correct for (r)?
Correct answer: A
Step 1: In Euclid’s division lemma, the remainder may start from (0). Step 2: The remainder is always less than the divisor (21), so (0 \le r < 21) is correct. Step 3: Never take the remainder equal to the divisor.
If the divisor is (17), quotient is (11), and remainder is (9), what is the dividend?
Correct answer: B
Step 1: To find the dividend, use (a=bq+r). Step 2: (a=17 \times 11+9=187+9=196). Step 3: Matching words with symbols before calculation reduces mistakes.
How many possible remainders can occur when a positive integer is divided by (13)?
Correct answer: B
Step 1: On division by (13), remainders can be from (0) to (12). Step 2: The total number of these values is (13). Step 3: For a divisor (b), the number of possible remainders is (b).
What are the quotient and remainder when (246) is divided by (19)?
Correct answer: B
Step 1: (19 \times 12=228) and (19 \times 13=247). Step 2: Since (247) is greater, the remainder is (246-228=18). Step 3: If the next multiple is greater, use the previous multiple.
Which is the correct Euclidean form when (305) is divided by (24)?
Correct answer: A
Step 1: (24 \times 12=288) and (24 \times 13=312). Step 2: Since (312) is greater, (305=24 \times 12+17) is correct. Step 3: A form with a negative remainder is not the standard Euclidean form.
If (a=18q+25), what is the correct remainder when (a) is divided by (18)?
Correct answer: C
Step 1: (25) cannot be the remainder because it is greater than (18). Step 2: (25=18+7), so (18q+25=18(q+1)+7). Step 3: Divide a large remainder again by the divisor to bring it into the correct range.
If (a=18q+36), what is the remainder when (a) is divided by (18)?
Correct answer: D
Step 1: (36) is twice (18). Step 2: (18q+36=18(q+2)+0), so the remainder is (0). Step 3: If the added part is a multiple of the divisor, the remainder can become zero.
If (a=10q+9), what is the remainder when (a+4) is divided by (10)?
Correct answer: A
Step 1: In (a=10q+9), the remainder is (9). Step 2: (a+4=10q+13=10(q+1)+3), so the new remainder is (3). Step 3: If the sum of remainders exceeds the divisor, subtract the divisor.
If (n=11q+3), what is the remainder when (n+20) is divided by (11)?
Correct answer: A
Step 1: Add (20) to the old remainder (3) to get (23). Step 2: (23=11 \times 2+1), so the new remainder is (1). Step 3: In addition-based questions, divide the new sum by the same divisor again.
What is the quotient when (437) is divided by (35)?
Correct answer: B
Step 1: (35 \times 12=420) and (35 \times 13=455). Step 2: Since (455) is greater than (437), the quotient is (12). Step 3: Checking the next multiple helps in choosing the quotient.
What can be the standard general forms of a positive integer when divided by (8)?
Correct answer: A
Step 1: On division by (8), remainders can be from (0) to (7). Step 2: So in (8q+r), (r=0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7). Step 3: Do not include (8q+8) while writing standard forms.
If (a=64) and (b=9), what are (q) and (r) in (a=bq+r)?
Correct answer: B
Step 1: (9 \times 7=63) and (9 \times 8=72). Step 2: (63) is the correct nearest smaller multiple, so the remainder is (64-63=1). Step 3: The remainder must be less than (9).
If (a=7q+6), what is the remainder when (a+3) is divided by (7)?
Correct answer: A
Step 1: In (a=7q+6), the remainder is (6). Step 2: (a+3=7q+9=7(q+1)+2), so the remainder is (2). Step 3: If the new remainder exceeds the divisor, subtract the divisor to get the answer.
If (a=15q+2), what is the remainder when (a+29) is divided by (15)?
Correct answer: A
Step 1: Adding (29) to the old remainder (2) gives (31). Step 2: (31=15 \times 2+1), so the new remainder is (1). Step 3: In large addition cases, it is enough to find the remainder of the new sum.
If (a=20q+17), what is the remainder when (a-5) is divided by (20)?
Correct answer: B
Step 1: In (a=20q+17), the remainder is (17). Step 2: (a-5=20q+12), so the remainder is (12). Step 3: In subtraction-based questions, subtract the given number from the old remainder.
If (a=20q+3), what is the correct remainder when (a-5) is divided by (20)?
Correct answer: A
Step 1: (a-5=20q-2), but the remainder cannot be negative. Step 2: (20q-2=20(q-1)+18), so the correct remainder is (18). Step 3: If a negative remainder appears, reduce the quotient by one and make the remainder positive.
What is the remainder when (529) is divided by (23)?
Correct answer: A
Step 1: (23 \times 23=529). Step 2: The number divides exactly, so the remainder is (0). Step 3: Recognizing exact division makes the calculation faster.
What is the quotient when (529) is divided by (23)?
Correct answer: C
Step 1: (23 \times 23=529). Step 2: The product equals the dividend, so the quotient is (23). Step 3: When the remainder is (0), the chosen multiplier is the correct quotient.
If (a=11q+22), what is the correct remainder when (a) is divided by (11)?
Correct answer: D
Step 1: (22) is a multiple of (11). Step 2: (11q+22=11(q+2)+0), so the correct remainder is (0). Step 3: If the added part is exactly divisible by the divisor, the remainder becomes zero.
If (a=11q+27), what is the correct remainder when (a) is divided by (11)?
Correct answer: A
Step 1: Divide (27) by (11). Step 2: (27=11 \times 2+5), so (11q+27=11(q+2)+5). Step 3: Finding the remainder of the large added part separately is an easy method.
If a number leaves remainder (15) when divided by (16), what will be the remainder for the next number divided by (16)?
Correct answer: A
Step 1: The number can be written as (16q+15). Step 2: The next number is (16q+16=16(q+1)+0). Step 3: After the greatest remainder, the next number has remainder (0).
If a number leaves remainder (0) when divided by (16), what will be the remainder for the next number divided by (16)?
Correct answer: B
Step 1: The number has the form (16q). Step 2: The next number is (16q+1), so the remainder is (1). Step 3: In consecutive numbers, remainders move in order like (0,1,2).
In (618=47 \times 13+7), what does (47) represent?
Correct answer: B
Step 1: In the Euclidean form (a=bq+r), (b) is the divisor. Step 2: In (618=47 \times 13+7), (47) is the number used for division. Step 3: Carefully identify the first number written in the product.
