Explanation: LCM(12,18,24) = 72.
- HCF
2. HCF of 36, 54 and 90 is:
- A. 6
- B. 9
- C. 12
- D. 18 (Correct)

- Divisibility
3. Which of the following is divisible by 11?
- A. 121
- B. 132
- C. 143
- D. All of these (Correct)
Explanation: 121=11×11, 132=11×12, 143=11×13.
- Unit Digit
4. Unit digit of 7^52 is:
- A. 1 (Correct)
- B. 3
- C. 7
- D. 9
Explanation: Powers of 7 cycle: 7,9,3,1 (period 4). 52÷4=13 remainder 0, so unit digit is 1.
- Remainder

- A. 1
- B. 2 (Correct)
- C. 3
- D. 4
Explanation: 2^3=8≡1(mod7), so 2^9≡1(mod7), then 2^10≡2(mod7).
- Factors
6. How many factors does 72 have?
- A. 9
- B. 12 (Correct)
- C. 15
- D. 18
Explanation: 72=2^3×3^2, factors=(3+1)(2+1)=12.

7. Product of two numbers is 1080 and their HCF is 6. Their LCM is:
- A. 180 (Correct)
- B. 200
- C. 210
- D. 220
Explanation: LCM = Product/HCF = 1080/6 = 180.
- Divisibility

- Remainder
9. Find the remainder when 99! is divided by 100.
- A. 0 (Correct)
- B. 1
- C. 25
- D. 50
Explanation: Since 99! contains both 4 and 25 as factors, it is divisible by 100.
- Unit Digit
10. Unit digit of 3^47 is:
- A. 1
- B. 3
- C. 7 (Correct)
- D. 9
Explanation: Powers of 3 cycle as 3, 9, 7, 1. Since 47 leaves remainder 3 when divided by 4, the unit digit is 7.
- HCF
