24. Number ending at 0 or 5 is divisible by 5. D E
Now, (12)n = (2 × 2 × 3)n = 22n × 3n A
It does not have 5 in prime factorisation. So, ABC ~ ADE

To find the LCM, we list all prime factors of [where a & b are co-primes & b  0]

404 and 96 and their greatest exponent as a2 = 3b2 .......(i)

follows:  3 divides a 2

Prime factors of404and96 Greatest Exponent  3 also divides a

2 5  a = 3c

101 1  a2 = 9c2
 LCM = 25 × 31 × 1011 = 9696 From equation (i)
 Now, HCF = LCM = 9696 × 4 = 38784 3b2 = 9c2
Product of two numbers = 404 × 96 = 38784  b2 = 3c2
Therefore HCF × LCM = Product of two 3 divides b2

----------------------------------------------------------------------- So, 3 is a common factor of a and b.
25. In ACB and DAB, we have Our assumption is wrong, because a and b

ABC = DBA [Common angle] It means 3 is an irrational number.
