Main Concepts and Results
Euclid’s Division Lemma : Given two positive integers a and b, there exist unique integers q and r satisfying a = bq + r, 0 ≤ r < b.
Euclid’s Division Algorithm to obtain the HCF of two positive integers, say c and d, c > d.
Step 1: Apply Euclid’s division lemma to c and d, to find whole numbers q and r, such that c = dq + r, 0 ≤ r < d.
Step 2: If r = 0, d is the HCF of c and d. If r ≠ 0, apply the division lemma to d and r.
Step 3 : Continue the process till the remainder is zero. The divisor at this stage will be the required HCF.
Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic : Every composite number can be expressed as a product of primes, and this expression (factorisation) is unique, apart from the order in which the prime factors occur.
The sum or difference of a rational and an irrational number is irrational.
The product or quotient of a non-zero rational number and an irrational number is irrational.
For any two positive integers a and b, HCF (a, b) × LCM (a, b) = a × b.
Multiple Choice Questions (Solved Examples)
Choose the correct answer from the given four options:
Sample Question 1: The decimal expansion of the rational number will terminate after
(A) one decimal place (B) two decimal places (C) three decimal places (D) more than 3 decimal places
Solution: Answer (B)
Sample Question 2: Euclid’s division lemma states that for two positive integers a and b, there exist unique integers q and r such that a = bq + r, where r must satisfy
(A) 1 < r < b (B) 0 < r ≤ b (C) 0 ≤ r < b (D) 0 < r < b
Solution: Answer (C)

Short Answer Questions with Reasoning (Solved Examples)
Sample Question 1: The values of the remainder r, when a positive integer a is divided by 3 are 0 and 1 only. Justify your answer.
Solution: No. According to Euclid’s division lemma, a = 3q + r, where 0 ≤ r < 3 and r is an integer.
Therefore, the values of r can be 0, 1 or 2.
Sample Question 2: Can the number , n being a natural number, end with the digit 5? Give reasons.
Solution: No, because , so the only primes in the factorisation of are 2 and 3, and not 5.
Hence, it cannot end with the digit 5.

Short Answer Type Questions (Solved Examples)
Sample Question1: Using Euclid’s division algorithm, find which of the following pairs of numbers are co-prime:
(i) 231, 396 (ii) 847, 2160
Solution: Let us find the HCF of each pair of numbers.
(i) 396 = 231 × 1 + 165
231 = 165 × 1 + 66
165 = 66 × 2 + 33
66 = 33 × 2 + 0
Therefore, HCF = 33. Hence, numbers are not co-prime.
(ii) 2160 = 847 × 2 + 466
847 = 466 × 1 + 381
466 = 381 × 1 + 85
381 = 85 × 4 + 41
85 = 41 × 2 + 3
41 = 3 × 13 + 2
3 = 2 × 1 + 1
2 = 1 × 2 + 0
Therefore, the HCF = 1. Hence, the numbers are co-prime.
Sample Question 2: Show that the square of an odd positive integer is of the form 8m + 1, for some whole number m.
Solution: Any positive odd integer is of the form 2q + 1, where q is a whole number.
Sample Question 3: Prove that √2+√3 is irrational.
Solution: Let us suppose that √2+√3 is rational. Let √2+√3 = a , where a is rational.
Therefore,√2 = a − √3
Squaring on both sides, we get
2 = a² + 3 – 2a √3
Therefore, √3 = a²+1/2a, which is a contradiction as the right hand side is a rational number while √3 is irrational. Hence, √2+√3 is irrational.

Long Answer Type Questions (Solved Examples)
Sample Question 1: Show that the square of an odd positive integer can be of the form 6q + 1 or 6q + 3 for some integer q.
Solution: We know that any positive integer can be of the form 6m, 6m + 1, 6m + 2, 6m + 3, 6m + 4 or 6m + 5, for some integer m.
Thus, an odd positive integer can be of the form 6m + 1, 6m + 3, or 6m + 5
Thus we have:
(6m+1)² = 36 m² + 12m + 1= 6 ( 6m² + 2m) + 1= 6q + 1, q is an integer
(6m+3)² = 36m² + 36m + 9 = 6 (6m²+6m + 1) + 3= 6q + 3, q is an integer
(6m + 5)² = 36m² + 60 m + 25 = 6 (6m²+ 10 m + 4) + 1 = 6q + 1, q is an integer.
Thus, the square of an odd positive integer can be of the form 6q + 1 or 6q + 3.
