Absolutely! Let's solve each problem from Exercise 1.

4:
1. Water Tank Capacity:
●​ Concept: We need to find the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 460, 245, and 525.
●​ Prime Factorization:
○​ 460 = 2² × 5 × 23
○​ 245 = 5 × 7²
○​ 525 = 3 × 5² × 7
●​ LCM: 2² × 3 × 5² × 7² × 23 = 112,700
●​ Answer: The minimum capacity of the water tank is 112,700 liters.
2. Greatest Divisor:
●​ Concept: We need to find the Greatest Common Divisor (GCD) or Highest Common
Factor (HCF) of 460, 648, and 984.
●​ Prime Factorization:
○​ 460 = 2² × 5 × 23
○​ 648 = 2³ × 3⁴
○​ 984 = 2³ × 3 × 41
●​ GCD: 2² = 4
●​ Answer: The greatest number that can divide 460, 648, and 984 is 4.
3. Smallest Divisible Number:
●​ Concept: We need to find the LCM of 406, 348, and 256.
●​ Prime Factorization:
○​ 406 = 2 × 7 × 29
○​ 348 = 2² × 3 × 29
○​ 256 = 2⁸
●​ LCM: 2⁸ × 3 × 7 × 29 = 174,144
●​ Answer: The smallest number exactly divisible by 406, 348, and 256 is 174,144.
4. Finding the Other Number:
●​ Concept: Product of two numbers = LCM × HCF
●​ Formula: Number 1 × Number 2 = LCM × HCF
●​ Given:
○​ LCM = 96
○​ HCF = 24
○​ Number 1 = 32
●​ Solution:
○​ 32 × Number 2 = 96 × 24
○​ Number 2 = (96 × 24) / 32
○​ Number 2 = 72
●​ Answer: The other number is 72.
5. Product of Two Numbers:
●​ Concept: Product of two numbers = LCM × HCF
●​ Given:
○​ HCF = 18
○​ LCM = 75
●​ Solution:
○​ Product = 18 × 75
○​ Product = 1350
●​ Answer: The product of the two numbers is 1350.
6. Finding the HCF:
●​ Concept: Product of two numbers = LCM × HCF
●​ Formula: HCF = (Product of two numbers) / LCM
●​ Given:
○​ LCM = 678
○​ Product = 4746
●​ Solution:
○​ HCF = 4746 / 678
○​ HCF = 7
●​ Answer: The HCF of the numbers is 7.
7. Rope Lengths:
●​ Concept: We need to find the GCD or HCF of 18 and 112.
●​ Prime Factorization:
○​ 18 = 2 × 3²
○​ 112 = 2⁴ × 7
●​ GCD: 2 = 2
●​ Answer: The greatest length Umar can cut the ropes into is 2 meters.
8. Servings for Iftar Party:
●​ Concept: We need to find the GCD or HCF of 24 and 120.
●​ Prime Factorization:
○​ 24 = 2³ × 3
○​ 120 = 2³ × 3 × 5
●​ GCD: 2³ × 3 = 24
●​ Answer: Aiza can prepare a maximum of 24 servings.
9. Next Walk Together:
●​ Concept: We need to find the LCM of 10 and 25.
●​ Prime Factorization:
○​ 10 = 2 × 5
○​ 25 = 5²
●​ LCM: 2 × 5² = 50
●​ Answer: They will next be in the park on the same day in 50 days.
10. Smallest Divisible Number:
●​ Concept: We need to find the LCM of 40, 224, and 400.
●​ Prime Factorization:
○​ 40 = 2³ × 5
○​ 224 = 2⁵ × 7
○​ 400 = 2⁴ × 5²
●​ LCM: 2⁵ × 5² × 7 = 5600
●​ Answer: The smallest number exactly divisible by 40, 224, and 400 is 5600.
