  2. B \((4,-1)\)
  3. C \((4,-3)\)
  4. D \((-4,3)\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \((4,-1)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Since, \(\quad 92=3 \cdot 24+20\)
\(24=1 \cdot 20+4\)
\(20=4 \cdot 5+0\)
\(\therefore \quad(24,92)=4\)
\(=24-1 \cdot 20\)
\(=24-1 \cdot(92-3 \cdot 24)\)
\(=24-92+3 \cdot 24\)
\(=4 \cdot 24-92\)
But \((24,92)=24 m+92 n\)
\(\therefore\) From Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get
\[
\begin{aligned}
\mathrm{m} &=4 \text { and } \mathrm{n}=-1 \\
\therefore \quad(\mathrm{m}, \mathrm{n}) &=(4,-1)
\end{aligned}
\]
