Correct Answer - Option 2 : 6 : 1
GIVEN:
Numbers = 24, 36
CONCEPT:
L.C.M of a group of numbers is the smallest number that is the multiple of all the numbers.
H.C.F of a group of numbers is the greatest factor of the numbers.
CALCULATION:
24 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3
36 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3
L.C.M = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 = 72
H.C.F = 2 × 2 × 3 = 12
Required ratio = 72/12 = 6 : 1
∴ the ratio is 6 : 1
