To express any fraction in simple (small form), we have to find the HCF of numerator and denominator. 1095)1168(1 1095 73)1095(15 1095 ——— 0 HCF of 1095 and 1168 is 73Therefore (1168/73)/(1095/73) = 16/15
Let the numbers be 3x, 4x and 5x.Then, their L.C.M. = 60x.So, 60x = 2400 or x = 40. The numbers are (3 x 40), (4 x 40) and (5 x 40).Hence, required H.C.F. = 40.
