Question Detail

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

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 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}

3. 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

4. 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.

5. Find the HCF of 2.1, 1.05 and 0.63

0.44
0.64
0.21
None of above

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

To solve this question quickly, first remove decimal by multiplying each term with 100,
Then terms become 210, 105, 63
Then HCF of above terms is 21,
So Answer is 0.21
