Question 10 .
I am a two-digit prime number and the sum of my digits is $10.1$ am also one of the factors of $57 .$
Who am I?

Solution:
19

Question $11 .$
Find the prime factorisation of each number by factor tree method and division method.
(a) 60
(b) 128
(c) 144
(d) 198
(e) 420
(f) 999
Solution:
(a) 60

∴ 60 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 5

Also 

∴ 60 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 5

∴ 128 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2

Also

∴ 128 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2

∴ 144 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 Also

∴ 144 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3

∴ 198 = 2 × 3 × 3 × 11 Also

∴ 198 = 2 × 3 × 3 × 11

∴ 420 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 5 × 7 Also

∴ 420 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 5 × 7

∴ 999 = 3 × 3 × 3 × 37

Question 12.

If there are 143 math books to be arranged in equal numbers in all the stacks, then find the number of books in each stack and also the number of stacks.

Solution

Total number of books $=143$
Factorizing $143=11 \times 13$

A number of stacks and number of books in each stack may be $(11,13)$ or $(13,11)$.
