Kavitha brought 12 laddus from her
home. She gave one laddu for each friend. She was able to give laddus to 12
friends without any remaining.
If she gives 2 for each, she could
give to 6 friends.
If she gives 3 for each, She could
give to 4 friends. Like this how can she give laddus so that no laddu would be
remaining? She can give each 4, 6, 12.
Numbers that divide 12 without
remaining are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 12.
The
numbers which can divide a number without leaving a remainder is called its
