Factors and Multiples : If a number a divides another number
b exactly, we say that a is a factor of b. In this case, b is called a
multiple of a.
Least Common Multiple (L.C.M.) : The least number which is
exactly divisible by each one of the given numbers is called their
L.C.M.
Factorization Method of Finding L.C.M.: Resolve each one of the
given numbers into a product of prime factors. Then, L.C.M. is
the product of highest powers of all the factors,

HCF & LCM
Highest Common Factor (H.C.F.) or Greatest Common Measure
(G.C.M.) or Greatest Common Divisor (G.C.D.).
The H.C.F. of two or more than two numbers is the greatest
number that divides each of them exactly.
There are two methods of finding the H.C.F. of a given set of
numbers :
Factorization Method: Express each one of the given numbers
as the product of prime factors . The product of least powers
of common prime factors gives H.C.F.
Division Method: To find the H.C.F. of two given numbers.
Divide the larger number by the smaller one

DIVISIBILITY TEST
Divisibility By 2 : A number is divisible by 2, if its unit's digit is any
of 0, 2, 4, 6, 8.
Divisibility By 3 : A number is divisible by 3, if the sum of its digits
is divisible by 3.
Divisibility By 4 : A number is divisible by 4, if the number formed
by the last two digits is divisible by 4.
Divisibility By 5 : A number is divisible by 5, if its unit's digit is
either 0 or 5.
Divisibility By 6 : A number is divisible by 6, if it is divisible by
both 2 and 3.
Divisibility By 7 : Double the last digit and subtract it from the
remaining leading truncated number.
Divisibility by 7 : Make pairs of 3 starting from right, add all even
and odd pairs together, then if the difference of sum of all odd pairs
and all even pairs is either 0 or a multiple of 7.
Divisibility By 8 : A number is divisible by 8, if the number formed
by the last three digits of the given number is divisible by 8.
Amity School of Business
Divisibility By 9 : A number is divisible by 9, if the sum of its digits
is divisible by 9.
Divisibility By 10 : A number is divisible by 10, if it ends with 0.
Divisibility By 11 : A number is divisible by 11, if the difference of
the sum of its digits at odd places and the sum of its digits at even
places, is either 0 or a number divisible by 11.
Divisibility By 12 : A number is divisible by 12 if it is divisible by
both 3 & 4.
Divisibility By 13 : Make pairs of 3 starting from right, add all even
and odd pairs together, then if the difference of sum of all odd pairs
and all even pairs is either 0 or a multiple of 13.
Divisibility By 14 : A number is divisible by 14, if it is divisible by
both 2 and 7.
Divisibility By 15 : A number is divisible by 15, if it is divisible by
both 3 and 5.
DIVISIBILITY TEST

Divisibility By 16 :
CASE 1: If the thousands digit is even, examine the number
formed by the last three digits.
CASE 2: If the thousands digit is odd, examine the number
formed by the last three digits plus 8.
Divisibility By 17 : Subtract 5 times the last digit from the rest.
Divisibility By 18 : A number is divisible by 18, if it is divisible by
both 2 and 9.
Divisibility By 19 : Add twice the last digit to the rest.
Divisibility By 20 : A number is divisible by 20, if it is divisible by
10, and the tens digit is even.
Divisibility By 20 : A number is divisible by 20, if the number
formed by the last two digits is divisible by 20.

PERCENTAGE
Percent means hundredths.
E.g. x percent means x hundredths, & is written as x%.
To express x% as a fraction: We write, x% = x/100.
To express a/b as a percent: We write, a/b =((a/b)*100)%.
Amity School of Business
KEY CONCEPTS
If A is R% more than B, then B is less than A by :--
[(R/(100+R))*100]%.
If A is R% less than B , then B is more than A by :--
[(R/(100-R))*100]%.
If the price of a commodity increases by R%, then the reduction
in consumption so as not to increase the expenditure is :--
[R/(100+R))*100]%.
If the price of the commodity decreases by R%, then the increase
in consumption so as to decrease the expenditure is :--
[(R/(100-R)*100]%.

Let the population of the town be P now and suppose it
increases at the rate of R% per annum, then :

PROFIT & LOSS
COST PRICE: The price at which article is purchased.
Abbreviated as C.P.
SELLING PRICE: The price at which article is sold. Abbreviated
as S.P.
PROFIT OR GAIN: IF SP IS GREATER THAN CP. (S.P.>C.P.)
LOSS: IF SP IS LESS THAN CP. (S.P.<C.P.)
Usually Gain or Loss is expressed as a percentage of C.P.
MARKED PRICE: The price at which an article marked.
Abbreviated as M.P. Usually discount is offered at M.R.P., and
the Discount=M.P.S.P.

If the trader professes to sell his goods at CP but uses false
weights, then:--
If the CP of two articles purchased is same. One of the two is
sold at a gain of x% and the other is sold at a loss of x%, then on
the whole there is no loss, no gain.
If the SP of two articles is same. One of the two is sold at a gain
of x% and the other is sold at a loss of x%, then there is always a
loss, given as:-
