Real Numbers
(NCERT Ex 1.1)
CBSE Class 10 - Maths - Real Numbers (NCERT Ex 1.1)

1. Use Euclid’s division algorithm to find the HCF of :
 

(i) 135 and 225 
(ii) 196 and 38220 
(iii) 867 and 255

Answer:
(i) 135 and 225
Step 1 : Since 225 > 135, apply Euclid’s division lemma to 225 and 135 to get
                                225 = 135 × 1 + 90

Step 2: Since remainder 90 ≠ 0, we apply the division lemma to 135 and 90 to get
                                135 = 90 × 1 + 45

Step 3: Now the remainder r = 45 ≠ 0 so we apply Euclid’s division lemma to 90 and 45 to have
                                 90 = 2 × 45 + 0

Step 4: The remainder has now become zero. Since the divisor at this stage is 45,
            ∴ HCF(135,225) =45

(ii) 196 and 38220
Step 1: Since 38220 > 196, apply the division lemma to 38220 and 196 to get
                            38220 = 196 × 195 + 0

Step 2: Since remainder is zero, the process stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 196,
             ∴ HCF(38220, 196) = 196

(iii) 867 and 255

Step 1: Since 867 > 255, we apply the division lemma to 867 and 255 to get
                   867 = 255 × 3 + 102
Step 2: Since remainder 102 ≠ 0, we apply the division lemma to 255 and 102 to have
                   255 = 102 × 2 + 51
Step 3: Now the new divisor  is 102 and new remainder is 51. Apply the division lemma to get
                   102 = 51 × 2 + 0
Step 4: Since the remainder is zero, the process stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 51,
              ∴ HCF(867, 255) = 51

अरे चाटते जूठे पत्ते जिस दिन मैंने देखा नर को

जिसने अपने ही स्वरूप को दिया इस घृणित विकृति का |

जगपति कहाँ ? अरे, सदियों से वह तो हुआ राख की ढेरी
वरना समता संस्थापन में लग जाती क्या इतनी देरी ?
छोड़ आसरा अलख शक्ति का; रे नर, स्वयं जगपति तू है,
तू यदि जूठे पत्ते चाटे, तो मुझ पर लानत है, थू है |

ओ भिखमंगे, अरे पराजित, ओ मजलूम, अरे चिर दोहित,
तू अखंड भण्डार शक्ति का; जाग, अरे निद्रा-सम्मोहित,
प्राणों को तडपाने वाली हुंकारों से जल-थल भर दे,
अनाचार के अम्बारों में अपना ज्वलित पलीता धर दे |
