Question Detail

The greatest possible length which can be used to measure exactly the lengths 7 m, 3 m 85 cm, 12 m 95 cm is

  • 16cm
  • 25cm
  • 15cm
  • 35cm

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

So by now, you must be knowing this is a question of HCF, right.
H.C.F. of (700 cm, 385 cm, 1295 cm) = 35 cm.

Similar Questions :

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

  • 400
  • 256
  • 120
  • 420

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

  • 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 the product of two numbers is 84942 and their H.C.F. is 33, find their L.C.M.

  • 2574
  • 2500
  • 1365
  • 1574

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

HCF * LCM = 84942, because we know

Product of two numbers = Product of HCF and LCM

LCM = 84942/33 = 2574

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. 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
