1. Euclid’s Division lemma:-Given Positive integers and b there exist unique integer’s q and r
satisfying
a=bq +r, where 0 r<b, where a ,b, q and r are respectively called as dividend, divisor, quotient
and remainder.

2. Euclid’s division Algorithm:-To obtain the HCF of two positive integers say c and d, with c>d, follow
the steps below:

Step I: Apply Euclid’s division lemma, to c and d, so we find whole numbers, q and r such that c =dq
+r,0
Step II: If r=0,d is the HCF of c and d. If r division lemma to d and r.
Step III: Continue the process till the remainder is zero. The divisor at this stage will be the required
HCF
Note:- Let a and b be positive integers .If a=bq +r, 0≤r<b, then HCF(a,b)= HCF(b,r)

3. The Fundamental theorem of Arithmetic:-


Every composite number can be expressed (factorized) as a product of primes, and this
factorization is unique, a part from the order in which the prime factors occur.
Ex.:

Theorem: LET x be a rational number whose decimal expansion terminates. Then x can be
expressed in the form
Of p/q where are co-prime and the prime factorization of q is of the form of ,
where n, m are non-negative integers.
Ex.

Theorem: Let � �
be a rational number such that the prime factorization of q is not of the form of

=
, where n ,m are non-negative integers. Then has a decimal expansion which is none terminating
repeating (recurring).
Ex.

Theorem: For any two positive integers a and b,


HCF (a,b) XLCM(a,b)=aXb
Ex.:4&6; HCF (4,6) =2, LCM(4,6) =12;HCFXLCM=2X12=24
Ans.: aXb=24
