Question

Three numbers are in the ratio of 2:3:4 and their LCM are 240. Their HCF is?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

20.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assign variables. The numbers acan be 2x, 3x and 4x. Then, LCM of 2x, 3x and 4x is 12x

12x = 240

(240/12) = x = 20

The HCF of 2x, 3x, and 4x is 20. (Because x is the highest common factor.)
