Answer (1)

Let's tackle each part of the question step by step:

Prime Numbers in Given Options: A number is divisible by 45 if it is divisible by both 5 and 9. Here, the task is to identify which of these options are prime numbers:

(a) 117: Not prime, as it can be divided by 3.
(b) 181: Prime, as it has no divisors other than 1 and itself.
(c) 179: Prime, the only divisors are 1 and 179.
(d) 182: Not prime, divisible by 2.
Prime numbers in the list are: (b) 181 and (c) 179.

Expressing Numbers as the Sum of Two Odd Primes:

(a) 44:

Option 1: 44 = 3 + 41 (Both are odd primes)

(b) 36:

Example: 36 = 5 + 31 (Both are odd primes)

(c) 24:

Example: 24 = 11 + 13 (Both are odd primes)

(d) 184:

Example: 184 = 3 + 181 (Both are odd primes)


Smallest Number with Four Different Prime Factors:


To find the smallest number with four different prime factors, multiply the smallest four primes: 2 × 3 × 5 × 7 = 210 .


Examples of Numbers with Specific Divisibility Conditions:

(a) Divisible by 5 but not by 10:

Example: 25 (It is divisible by 5 but not by 10)

(b) Divisible by 7 but not by 14:

Example: 21 (It is divisible by 7 but not by 14)

(c) Divisible by both 2 and 6 but not by 16:

Example: 12 (It is divisible by 2 and 6 but not by 16)

(d) Divisible by both 5 and 6 but not by 18:

Example: 30 (It is divisible by 5 and 6 but not by 18)
