Answer» Correct Answer - Option 4 : 209 We need to find the Greatest Common Factor (HCF). Thus, (1471 – 1231) = 240 (1711 - 1471) = 240 (1711 – 1231) = 480 = 2 × 240 Therefore, The greatest number is 240. So, Numbers are – 1231 = (240 × 5) + 31 1471 = (240 × 6) + 31 1711 = (240 × 7) + 31 The remainder is 31. According to question – ⇒ (a – b) = 240 – 31 = 209 |
