Question

HCF of three numbers is 12. If they be in the ratio 1:2:3, the numbers are:​

Answer 1

Answer:

12, 24 and 36.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be x, 2x and 3x with a common factor 'x'.

As the HCF is the highest factor common in all the three '12', x=12.

Therefore,

=> x = 12.

=> 2x = 24

=> 3x = 36

So the numbers are 12, 24 and 36.
