Question Detail

Reduce \begin{aligned}
\frac{368}{575}
\end{aligned} to the lowest terms.

\begin{aligned} \frac{30}{25} \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} \frac{28}{29} \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} \frac{28}{29} \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} \frac{16}{25} \end{aligned}

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

We can do it easily by in two steps
Step1: We get the HCF of 368 and 575 which is 23
Step2: Divide both by 23, we will get the answer 16/25

1. The H.C.F. and L.C.M. of two numbers are 12 and 5040 respectively If one of the numbers is 144, find the other number

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Solve this question by using below formula.
Product of 2 numbers = product of their HCF and LCM

144 * x = 12 * 5040

x = (12*5040)/144 = 420

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

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

3. What will be the LCM of 8, 24, 36 and 54

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

LCM of 8-24-36-54 will be
2*2*2*3*3*3 = 216

4. Find the LCM of \begin{aligned} \frac{2}{3}, \frac{4}{6}, \frac{8}{27} \end{aligned}

\begin{aligned} \frac{2}{27} \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} \frac{8}{3} \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} \frac{2}{3} \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} \frac{8}{27} \end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Whenever we have to solve this sort of question, remember the formula.
LCM = \\begin{aligned} \\frac{HCF of Denominators}{LCM of Numerators} \\end{aligned}
So answers will be option 2,
Please also give attention to the difference in formula of HCF and LCM

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 :

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
