Question Detail

Find the HCF of 54, 288, 360

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Lets solve this question by factorization method.

\begin{aligned}
18 = 2 \times 3^2, 288 = 2^5 \times 3^2, 360 = 2^3 \times 3^2 \times 5
\end{aligned}

So HCF will be minimum term present in all three, i.e.
\begin{aligned}
2 \times 3^2 = 18
\end{aligned}

1. 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

2. 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

3. 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

4. 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

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

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
