Question Detail

The ratio of two numbers is 3 : 4 and their H.C.F. is 4. Their L.C.M. is

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Let the numbers be 3x and 4x. Then, their H.C.F. = x. So, x = 4.
So, the numbers 12 and 16.
L.C.M. of 12 and 16 = 48.

1. Find the HCF 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 A

Explanation:

Whenever we have to solve this sort of question, remember the formula.
HCF = \begin{aligned} \frac{HCF of Numerators}{LCM of Denominators} \end{aligned}
So answers will be option 1

2. Find the largest number which divides 62,132,237 to leave the same reminder

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

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

3. Reduce \begin{aligned}
\frac{803}{876}
\end{aligned} to the lowest terms.

\begin{aligned} \frac{11}{12} \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} \frac{23}{24} \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} \frac{26}{27} \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} \frac{4}{7} \end{aligned}

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

HCF of 803 and 876 is 73, Divide both by 73, We get the answer 11/12

4. 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

5. Which greatest possible length can be used to measure exactly 15 meter 75 cm, 11 meter 25 cm and 7 meter 65 cm

45cm
255cm
244cm
55cm

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Convert first all terms into cm.
i.e. 1575 cm, 1125cm, 765cm.

Now whenever we need to calculate this type of question, we need to find the HCF. HCF of above terms is 255.
