Sunny can complete a work in 15 days. If Bobby is 60% as efficient as Sunny, in how many days can Bobby complete the work?

PSSSB Clerk Mock Test - 3 - Question 11

The L.C.M. of three different numbers is 120. Which of the following cannot be their H.C.F.?

Detailed Solution for PSSSB Clerk Mock Test - 3 - Question 11

We know that: 
LCM is the least common multiple of the given numbers whereas HCF is the highest common factor of those numbers.
Then, LCM is the multiplication of one common factor of the numbers and the other different factors of the numbers.
Write the LCM = 120 into factored form, that is
120 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 5
= 4(2 × 3 × 5)
⇒ 4 is the common factor of the numbers.
So, the HCF of three numbers is a multiple of 4.
Multiples of 4: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, ...
Therefore, 35 is not the multiple of 4, then 35 cannot be their HCF.
