Playing with Numbers

Factor

An exact divisor of a number is called its factor.

Ex: 1, 2, 3 and 6 are factors of number 6.

· The number 1 is a factor of every number.

· Every number is a factor of itself.

· The factors of a number are either less than or equal to the number itself.

· All numbers have a finite number of factors.

· The product of two numbers is called a multiple of each of the two numbers being multiplied.

· A number is a multiple of all its factors.

· Every number is a multiple of 1 and of itself.

· There are infinite multiples of a number.

· If the sum of the factors of a number is two times the number, then the number is called a perfect number.

· Numbers that have only two factors in the form of 1 and the number itself are called prime numbers.

· Numbers that have more than two factors are called composite numbers.

· The number 1 is neither a prime number nor a composite number.

· All numbers with 0, 2, 4, 6 or 8 in the unit’s or one’s place are multiples of 2, and are called even numbers.

· All numbers with 1, 3, 5, 7 or 9 in the unit’s or one’s place are called odd numbers.

· The number 2 is the smallest prime number, and also the only prime number that is even.

· All prime numbers, except 2, are odd numbers.

· The sum of any two prime numbers, except with 2, is an even number.

Tests of Divisibility

There are certain tests of divisibility that can help us to decide whether a given number is divisible by another number.

Divisibility of numbers by 2: A number that has 0, 2, 4, 6 or 8 in its ones place is divisible by 2.

Ex: 234, 830 are divisible by 2

Divisibility of numbers by 3: A number is divisible by 3 if the sum of its digits is divisible by 3.

Ex: 234543

Sum of digits = 2 +3 +4 + 5 +4 +3 =21 which is divisible by 3.

Therefore, 234543 is divisible by 3.

Divisibility of numbers by 4: A number is divisible by 4 if the number formed by its last two digits

(i.e. ones and tens) is divisible by 4.

Ex: 84560

The last two digits of the number is 60 which is divisible by 4.

Therefore, the given number is divisible by 4.

Divisibility of numbers by 5: A number that has either 0 or 5 in its ones place is divisible by 5.
Ex: 834345

The unit digit of the given number is 5.

Therefore, the given number is divisible by 5.

Divisibility of numbers by 6: A number is divisible by 6 if that number is divisible by both 2 and 3.
Ex: 603012

The last digit of the given number is 2 which is divisible by2.

Sum of digits = 6 +0+3+0+1+2 =12 which is divisible by3.

Therefore, the given number is divisible by 6.

Divisibility of numbers by 8: A number is divisible by 8 if the number formed by its last three digits is divisible by 8.

Ex: 452640

The last three digits of the given numbers is 640 which is divisible by 8.

Therefore, the given number is divisible by 8.

Divisibility of numbers by 9: A number is divisible by 9 if the sum of its digits is divisible by 9.

Ex: 926793

Sum of digits = 9 +2 +6+7+9+3 = 36 which is divisible by 9.

Therefore, the given number is divisible by 9.

Divisibility of numbers by 10: A number that has 0 in its ones place is divisible by 10.

Ex: 4245260

The given number has 0 in it ones place.

Therefore, the given number is divisible by 10.

Divisibility of numbers by 11: If the difference between the sum of the digits at the odd and even places in a given number is either 0 or a multiple of 11, then the given number is divisible by 11.

Ex: 425425

Sum of the digits at odd places = 4 +5+ 2 =11

Sum of the digits at even places = 2 +4 +5 =11

Their difference =11 – 11 = 0

Therefore, the given number is divisible by 11.

Co–prime Numbers

If the only common factor of two numbers is 1, then the two numbers are called co-prime numbers.

General rules of divisibility for all numbers:

· If a number is divisible by another number, then it is also divisible by all the factors of the other number. 

• If two numbers are divisible by another number, then their sum and difference is also divisible by the other number.

• If a number is divisible by two co-prime numbers, then it is also divisible by the product of the two co-prime numbers.

Prime Factorisation

Writing a number as a product of its prime factors is called the prime factorisation of the number.

Eg: i) 18 = 2 × 3 × 3

ii) 40 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 5

HCF: The greatest of the common factors of the given numbers is called their highest common factor (HCF). It is also known as the greatest common divisor (GCD). Eg: Prime factorisation of 16 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2

Prime factorisation of 40 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 5

HCF of 16 and 40 = 2 × 2 × 2 = 8

LCM: The smallest common multiple of the given numbers is called their Least Common Multiple (LCM). Eg: The LCM of given numbers using their prime factorisation:

Prime factorisation of 4 = 2 × 2

Prime factorisation of 6 = 2 × 3

LCM of 4 and 6 = 2 × 2 × 3 =12

To find the LCM of the given numbers using the division method:

• Write the given numbers in a row.

• Divide the numbers by the smallest prime number that divides one or more of the given numbers.

• Write the number that is not divisible, in the second row.

• Write the new dividends in the second row.

• Divide the new dividends by another smallest prime number.

• Continue dividing till the dividends are all prime numbers or 1.

• Stop the process when all the new dividends are prime numbers or 1.

Example By using Division Method, find the LCM of 24 & 18 ?

Answer: Steps of finding HCF by Successive Division Method is as :-

2 | 24 18       Step 1 Write the given numbers as shown on the left and divide them with the least prime number i.e 2.

2 | 12 9         Step 2 On division, write the quotient in each case below the number.

2 | 6 9           Step 3 If any number is not divisible by its respective divisior, it is to be written as such in the next line.

3 | 3 9           Step 4 Keep on dividing the quotient until you get 1(as quotient of all) in the last row.

3 | 1 3           Step 5 Multiply all the divisors to get LCM of given numbers.

| 1 1              Step 6 Hence, LCM = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 = 72.

Example Find the LCM of 20, 30,& 40 by Division Method

Answer Steps of finding HCF by Successive Division Method is as :-

2 | 20 30 40
2 | 10 15 20
2 | 5 15 10
3 | 5 15 5
5 | 5 5 5
| 1 1 1
