    Question

    Calculate the HCF of 1.759,5.612,718\frac{1.75}{9}, \frac{5.6}{12}, \frac{7}{18}​​

    A.

    11180\frac{11}{180}​​

    B.

    7180\frac{7}{180}​​

    C.

    13180\frac{13}{180}​​

    D.

    17180\frac{17}{180}​​

    Correct option is B

    Given:

    Number given are 1.759,5.612,718\frac{1.75}{9}, \frac{5.6}{12}, \frac{7}{18}​​

    Formula Used:

    HCF of fractions =HCF of NumeratorsLCM of denominators \frac{HCF\ of\ Numerators}{LCM\ of\ denominators}​​

    Solution:

    Numbers in fraction are:

    1.759=175900=736\frac{1.75}{9} =\frac{175}{900}= \frac{7}{36}​ 

    5.612=56120=715\frac{5.6}{12}=\frac{56}{120}= \frac{7}{15}​ 

    HCF of (736,715,718)=HCF of 7,7,7LCM of 36,15,18(\frac{7}{36},\frac{7}{15}, \frac{7}{18}) = \frac{HCF\ of\ 7,7,7}{LCM\ of\ 36,15,18}​​

    HCF of 7,7,7 is 7

    LCM of 36, 15 and 18

    36 =22×32 2^2 \times 3^2​​

    15 = 3×53 \times 5​​

    18 = 2×322 \times 3^2​​

    LCM =22×32×5=180 2^2 \times 3^2 \times 5 = 180​​

    HCF of (1.759,5.612,718)=7180(\frac{1.75}{9}, \frac{5.6}{12}, \frac{7}{18}) = \frac{7}{180}​​
