Q2(i):
Find the LCM and HCF of the following pairs of integers and verify that LCM $\times$ HCF = product of the two numbers. (i) 26 and 91
Solution :
Given: Two integers, $a = 26$ and $b = 91$.
To Find: The Highest Common Factor (HCF) and Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 26 and 91, and to verify the relationship: $LCM \times HCF = a \times b$.
Step 1: Prime Factorization of the given numbers
To find the HCF and LCM, we first express each number as a product of its prime factors.
For 26:
$26 = 2 \times 13$
[Since 26 is an even number, we divide by the smallest prime 2, leaving 13, which is prime.]
For 91:
$91 = 7 \times 13$
[Since 91 is not divisible by 2, 3, or 5, we test 7: $91 \div 7 = 13$. Both 7 and 13 are prime numbers.]
Step 2: Determining HCF and LCM
HCF (Highest Common Factor): The HCF is the product of the smallest power of each common prime factor in the numbers.
Common prime factor: $13^1$
$HCF(26, 91) = 13$
LCM (Least Common Multiple): The LCM is the product of the greatest power of each prime factor involved in the numbers.
Prime factors involved: $2^1, 7^1, 13^1$
$LCM(26, 91) = 2 \times 7 \times 13$
$LCM(26, 91) = 14 \times 13$
$LCM(26, 91) = 182$
Step 3: Verification of the relationship $LCM \times HCF = a \times b$
Left Hand Side (LHS):
$LCM \times HCF = 182 \times 13$
Calculation:
$182 \times 10 = 1820$
$182 \times 3 = 546$
$1820 + 546 = 2366$
$LHS = 2366$
Right Hand Side (RHS):
$Product of numbers = 26 \times 91$
Calculation:
$26 \times 90 = 2340$
$26 \times 1 = 26$
$2340 + 26 = 2366$
$RHS = 2366$
Conclusion:
Since $LHS = RHS$ ($2366 = 2366$), the relationship is verified.
Final Answer: The HCF is 13, the LCM is 182, and the relationship $LCM \times HCF = \text{product of the two numbers}$ is verified.

Ability to connect with children (or with older students), on a personal level. communication and social skills.Teaching can be quite satisfying for people who do it well. I know this because I am a teacher, too. Although I do not think I'm always the best teacher, do I know that the majority of my students love me, and I guess this is partly why good things happen in my classroom. I have spent a lot of time thinking about and done a lot of research in to the question of what characteristics make a teacher effective and how I can succeed in the classroom. Although every great teacher has their own special, unique style, I have found that there are nine specific universal qualities that are necessary for anyone who wants to teach effectively, whether they want to teach in an elementary school or a university. If any teacher possesses the following characteristics and qualities, he/she can become a very good teacher with large fan base.
