Answer»

The largest positive integer that will divide 398, 436 and 542 leaving reminders 7, 11 and 15 respectively is the HCF of the numbers

(398 – 7), (436 – 11) and (542 – 15)

i.e. 391, 425 and 527

HCF of 391,425 and 527:

HCF of 425 and 391:

425 = 391 x 1 + 34

391 = 34 x 11 + 17

34 = 17 x 2 + 0

HCF of 425 and 391 = 17

Similarly, HCF of 17 and 527 = 17

Thus, HCF of 391, 425 and 527 = 17.
