Question 6.
Write any 5 numbers which are divisible by 2,5 and 10.
Solution:
10, 20, 30, 40. are divisible by 2, 5 and 10
[∵ The L.C.M. of 2, 5, 10 is 10]

Question 7.
A number 34A is exactly divisible by 2 and leaves a remainder 1, when divided by 5, find A.
Solution:
If 34A Is divisible by 2 then the remainder should be equal to 0.
∴ A should be equal to 0, 2, 4, 6, 8.
∴ 340, 342, 344, 346, 348 are divisible by 2 and gives the remainder ‘0’.
Among these 346 is divisible by 5 and gives the remainder 1.
∴ 346 → $$\frac{6}{5}$$ (R = 1)
∴ The value of A = 6.
