The required greatest number is the HCF of 263-7, 935-7, 1383-7
Correct Option: C
The required greatest number is the HCF of 263-7, 935-7, 1383-7
i.e. 256, 928 and 1376 HCF = 32

If (x+2) is the HCF of x2 + ax + b and x2 + cx + d.
Then, (-2)2 -2a +b = (-2)2 -2c + dCorrect Option: C
If (x+2) is the HCF of x2 + ax + b and x2 + cx + d.
Then, (-2)2 -2a +b = (-2)2 -2c + d
b + 2c = 2a + d

7 / 8 = 0.875,
6 / 7 = 0.857,
4 / 5 = 0.8 and 5/6 = 0.833
Now, 0.875 > 0.857 > 0.833 > 0.8
So, 7/8 is the greatestCorrect Option: D
7 / 8 = 0.875,
6 / 7 = 0.857,
4 / 5 = 0.8 and 5/6 = 0.833
Now, 0.875 > 0.857 > 0.833 > 0.8
So, 7/8 is the greatest

L.C.M = ( L.C.M . of 2, 4, 5, 7) / (H.C.F. of 3, 9, 6, 12)
Correct Option: D
L.C.M = ( L.C.M . of 2, 4, 5, 7) / (H.C.F. of 3, 9, 6, 12)
= 140/3
