1. 4
Explanation: 4 is not a prime number as it has more than 2 factors.
1. 17
Explanation: 68 = 2 x 2 x 17. Therefore 17 is the factor of 68.
1. even number
Explanation: The sum of two odd numbers is always a even number.
Sum of two even numbers is even number. So when two odd numbers and one even number added is even number.
For ex. 1 + 3 = 4 (even number) and 6 + 4 = 10 (even number)
1. 15267
Explanation: 15267 is correct response.
If u Add the digits of the number I.e 1+5+2+6+7=21, the sum is the multiple of 3. Therefore, the number is divisible by 3
1. infinite
Explanation: The multiple of any number is infinite as a number can multiplied till infinite
1. - q
2. - s
3. - p
4. - r
1. 1 is neither prime number nor composite number.
2. The smallest prime number is 2.
3. The smallest composite number is 4.
4. The smallest even number is 2.
1. True
2. False
3. True
4. False

1. LCM $={2}^{3}×3×5=120$
2. 27 = 1 × 27
27 = 3 × 9
Thus, all the factors of 27 are 1, 3, 9 and 27.
3. By checking all the numbers from 125 to 142 which are divisible by 7 , we get 126, 133, 140.
So, the multiples of 7 that lie between 125 to 142 are 126, 133 and 140.
4. Factors of 70 are 1, 2, 5, 7, 10, 14, 35 and 70.
Factors of 105 are 1, 3, 5, 7, 15, 21, 35 and 105.
Factors of 175 are 1, 5, 7, 25, 35 and 175.
∴ Common factors of 70, 105 and 175 are 1,5,7 and 35.
Highest of these common factors is 35.
∴ H.C.F of 70, 105 and 175 is 35.
5. Factors of 27 are 1, 3, 9 and 27.
Factors of 63 are 1, 3, 7, 9, 21 and 63.
∴ Common factors of 27 and 63 are 1, 3 and 9.
Highest of these common factors is 9.
∴ H.C.F. of 27 and 63 is 9.
6. The multiples of 9 are
9 × 1 = 9 9 × 2=18 9 × 3= 27 9 × 4= 36 9 × 5=45 9 × 6=54 9 × 7 = 63 9 × 8 = 72 9 × 9= 81 9 × 10= 90 9 × 11=99 9 × 12= 108
Since 108 is greater than 100 therefore all the multiples of 9 upto 100 are 9, 18, 27, 36, 45, 54, 63, 72, 81, 90 and 99.
7. The smallest 4-digit number is 1000.
The least number which is exactly divisible by 8, 10, and 12 will be their L.C.M.
L.C.M. of 8, 10, and 12:

L.C.M. of 8, 10, 12 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 5 × 3 = 120.
By dividing smallest 4-digit number 1000 by 120,

We find that 1000 is not exactly divisible by 120.
If we subtract 40 from 1000, we get 1000 – 40 = 960, which will be divisible by 120. But 960 is a 3-digit number. The next number to 960 which is divisible by 120 is 960 + 120 = 1080.
Therefore, the required 4-digit number divisible by 8, 10, and 12 is 1080.
