    In the first question (2:58), can we simply multiply 8 with 15 and see which of the following options divides the multiplied number (here 120)?

  • @Kings_707
    @Kings_707 3 месяца назад +1

    (5:17) I utilized this approach...
    I multiplied 8 by 15 (8*15=120) and then check from the following numbers which is divisible of 120, that is (124/24)
    Therefore, 24 was the right answer😄

  • @matiasel69420
    @matiasel69420 11 месяцев назад

    To solve this problem, we'll use the concept of prime factorization. Let's start by finding the prime factorization of the numbers 8 and 15, since the integer in question is divisible by both.
    Prime Factorization of 8:
    8
    =
    2
    ×
    2
    ×
    2
    8=2×2×2
    (8 is a power of 2, specifically
    2
    3
    2
    3
    )
    Prime Factorization of 15:
    15
    =
    3
    ×
    5
    15=3×5
    (15 is the product of the primes 3 and 5)
    An integer that is divisible by both 8 and 15 must have at least the prime factors of both 8 and 15 in its factorization. This means the integer must have at least three 2's (from 8) and one 3 and one 5 (from 15). Therefore, its prime factorization must include
    2
    ×
    2
    ×
    2
    ×
    3
    ×
    5
    2×2×2×3×5.
    Now, let's analyze the options:
    a) 16:
    16
    =
    2
    ×
    2
    ×
    2
    ×
    2
    16=2×2×2×2
    (16 is
    2
    4
    2
    4
    ; it does not contain the factors 3 and 5)
    b) 24:
    24
    =
    2
    ×
    2
    ×
    2
    ×
    3
    24=2×2×2×3
    (24 contains three 2's and one 3, but lacks the factor 5)
    c) 32:
    32
    =
    2
    ×
    2
    ×
    2
    ×
    2
    ×
    2
    32=2×2×2×2×2
    (32 is
    2
    5
    2
    5
    ; it does not contain the factors 3 and 5)
    d) 36:
    36
    =
    2
    ×
    2
    ×
    3
    ×
    3
    36=2×2×3×3
    (36 contains two 2's and two 3's, but lacks the factor 5)
    Given this analysis, we see that none of the options a), b), c), or d) have the complete set of prime factors (three 2's, one 3, and one 5) that an integer divisible by both 8 and 15 must have. Therefore, the integer in question is not necessarily divisible by any of the options provided.
