Problems on H.C.F and L.C.M
An officer was appointed on maximum daily wages on contract money of Rs. 4956. But on being absent for some days, he was paid only Rs. 3894. For how many days was he absent?
To solve this question quickly, first remove decimal by multiplying each term with 100,Then terms become 210, 105, 63Then HCF of above terms is 21, So Answer is 0.21
Convert first all terms into cm.i.e. 1575 cm, 1125cm, 765cm.Now whenever we need to calculate this type of question, we need to find the HCF.HCF of above terms is 255.
Interval of change = (L.C.M of 48,72,108)sec.=432sec. So, the lights will agin change simultaneously after every 432 seconds i.e,7 min.12sec Hence , next simultaneous change will take place at 8:27:12 hrs.
