Question : Which is the largest number that divides each of 1036, 1813, and 3885 without leaving any remainder?
Option 1: 333
Option 2: 111
Option 3: 259
Option 4: 37
Correct Answer: 259
Solution :
HCF of 1036, 1813, and 3885 are as follows:
1813 – 1036 = 777
3885 – 1813 = 2072
Now difference of 2072 and 777 = 2072 – 777 = 1295
Again difference of 1295 and 777 = 1295 – 777 = 518
Again difference of 518 and 777 = 777 – 518 = 259
Thus, 259 divides all three numbers remaining zero as a remainder.
Hence, the correct answer is 259.
