Divide the L.C.M of 48, 64, and 80 by their H.C.F

Divide the L.C.M of 48, 64, and 80 by their H.C.F
  • A.
    20
  • B.
    30
  • C.
    48
  • D.
    60
Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation

48 = 24 x 3, 64 = 26, 80 = 24 x 5
L.C.M = 26 x 3 x 5
H.C.F = 24
(frac{2^6 times 3 times 5}{2^4})
= 22 x 3 x 5
= 4 x 3 x 5
= 12 x 5
= 60
