Question : The numbers are in the ratio of 3 : 5. if their HCF is 11, then find the sum of two numbers.
Option 1: 55
Option 2: 33
Option 3: 53
Option 4: 88
Correct Answer: 88
Solution :
The numbers are in the ratio 3 : 5, and their highest common factor (HCF) is 11.
This means that the numbers are (3 × HCF) and (5 × HCF).
The first number = 3 × 11 = 33
The second number = 5 × 11 = 55
The sum of the two numbers = 33 + 55 = 88
Hence, the correct answer is 88.
