  • 30
  • 32
  • 35
  • 45

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Trick is HCF of (237-132), (132-62), (237-62)
= HCF of (70,105,175) = 35

3. If LCM of two number is 693, HCF of two numbers is 11 and one number is 99, then find other

  • 34
  • 77
  • 12
  • 45

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

For any this type of question, remember
Product of two numbers = Product of their HCF and LCM

So Other number = \begin{aligned} \frac{693 \times 11}{99} \end{aligned} = 77

4. Find the HCF of
\begin{aligned}
2^2 \times 3^2 \times 7^2, 2 \times 3^4 \times 7
\end{aligned}

  • 128
  • 126
  • 146
  • 434

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

HCF is Highest common factor, so we need to get the common highest factors among given values. So we got
2 * 3*3 * 7

5. There are three numbers, these are co-prime to each other are such that the product of the first two is 551 and that of the last two is 1073. What will be the sum of three numbers :

  • 80
  • 82
  • 85
  • 87

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

As given the questions these numbers are co primes, so there is only 1 as their common factor.
It is also given that two products have the middle number in common.
So, middle number = H.C.F. of 551 and 1073 = 29;

So first number is : 551/29 = 19
Third number = 1073/29 = 37

So sum of these numbers is = (19 + 29 + 37) = 85
