b. 1/3
c. 1/4
d. 1/12?

Answer 1

$answer \: will \: be \: 1$
so it is the answer

Answer 2

Answer:

Option d - $HCF=\frac{1}{12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Fractions $\frac{1}{3}$,$\frac{2}{3}$  and $\frac{1}{4}$

To find : What is the HCF of given numbers?

Solution :

The  HCF of fraction $\frac{a}{b},\frac{c}{d}$ is given by,

$HCF=\frac{\text{HCF of Numerator}}{\text{LCM of Denominator}}$

Numerators are 1,2 and 1.

HCF of Numerator = 1

Denominators are 3,3 and 4

LCM of Denominator = 12

Substitute in the formula,

$HCF=\frac{\text{HCF of Numerator}}{\text{LCM of Denominator}}$

$HCF=\frac{1}{12}$

Therefore, option d is correct.

The HCF of $\frac{1}{3}$,$\frac{2}{3}$  and $\frac{1}{4}$ is $HCF=\frac{1}{12}$
