Solution

To find the greatest number which leaves the same remainder when dividing different numbers, we need to find the HCF (Highest Common Factor) of the differences of these numbers and the given remainder.

Here are the steps:

  1. Subtract the remainder from each of the given numbers: 1358 - 14 = 1344 1870 - 14 = 1856 2766 - 14 = 2752

  2. Now, find the HCF of these three results (1344, 1856, 2752). The HCF of these numbers is 512.

So, the greatest number which when divides 1358, 1870, and 2766 leaves the same remainder 14 in each case is 512. However, this option is not given in your list. There might be a mistake in the question or the options provided.
