    Chapter Overview

    • This chapter continues the exploration of real numbers that began in Class IX, focusing on two key properties: the Euclid's division algorithm and the Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic.
    • The chapter begins by introducing the concept of divisibility of integers.
    • Euclid's division algorithm states that any positive integer a can be divided by another positive integer b (where a is greater than b) leaving a remainder r that is smaller than b.
