Revision Notes: Real Numbers
Key Concepts
- Euclid's Division Lemma: a = bq + r, where 0 ≤ r < b
- Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic: Every composite number can be uniquely expressed as product of primes
- HCF × LCM = Product of two numbers
- Irrational Numbers: Numbers that cannot be expressed as p/q
Important Formulae
HCF(a,b) × LCM(a,b) = a × b
