An army contingent of 616 members is to march behind an army band of 32 members in a parade. The two groups are to march in the same number of columns. What is the maximum number of columns in which they can march?

Here a maximum number of columns=H.C.F. between 32 and 616. By division method 616=32x19+8 32=8x4+0, so 8 is H.C, F. between616 and 32.Hence the maximum number of columns=8

For a terminating decimal denominator must be 2^mx5^n where m and n are integers.

 

For (i) 3125=5^5x1=5^5x2^0=2^0x5^5 So 13/3125 is a terminating decimal.

(ii)8=2^3x1=2^3x5^0 so 17/8 is a terminating decimal.

(iii)155=5x31. There is no factor of 2 here. So 64/155 is non terminating decimal.

(iv)1600=64x25=2^6x5^2. So 15/1600 is terminating decimal.

(v)343=7^3, no factors of 2 and 5. So 29/343 is non terminating decimal.

(vi) The denominator is 2^3x5^2. So 23/2^3x5^2 is a terminating decimal.

But for a rational number a/b there cannot be a common factor other than 1.So this contradicts 1/√2 is rational. So it is an irrational number.

(ii) Let 7√5 is a rational number=a/b.  

then√5=a/7b is a rational number. But we know√5 is irrational. So 7√5 is irrational.

(iii)Let 6+√2 is a rational number=a/b

then√2=(a/b)-6=(a-6b)/6 is a rational number.

This contradicts √2 is irrational.

So 6+√2 is irrational.

then√5=a/7b is a rational number. But we know√5 is irrational. So 7√5 is irrational.

then√2=(a/b)-6=(a-6b)/6 is a rational number.

This contradicts √2 is irrational.

So 6+√2 is irrational.
