If R and S are positive integers, is R/S an integer?
1) Every factor of S is also a factor of R.
2) Every Prime Factor of S is also a Prime factor of R.
My Approach:
Given: R & S posiitve integers....
Statement1: Every factor of S = Ever factor of R means both the numbers of same... (IS MY CONCLUSION CORRECT????)
SO SUFFICIENT....
Statement2: Every prime factor of S is also a Prime Factor of R...
Let S = 30 its prime factors are 5, 2,3...
Let R = 60 its prime factors are 5, 2, 2, 3.... so R/S is an integer... if S> R then the R/S will not be an integer...
So Answer is A.... Is my reasoning correct? Please explain if its wrong... Thanks...
