Correct Answer - Option 2 : y

Calculation:

HCF of 132, 156 and 192 is x

⇒ 132 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 11

⇒ 156 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 13

⇒ 192 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3

HCF of 132, 156 and 192 is (2 × 2) = 4

HCF of 105, 150 and 210 is y

⇒ 105 = 3 × 5 × 7

⇒ 150 = 2 × 3 × 5 × 5

⇒ 210 = 2 × 3 × 5 × 7

HCF of 105, 150 and 210 is (3 × 5) = 15

HCF of 112, 196 and 210 is z

⇒ 112 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 7

⇒ 196 = 2 × 2 × 7 × 7

⇒ 210 = 2 × 3 × 5 × 7

HCF of 112, 196 and 210 is (2 × 7) = 14

∴ The greatest HCF is y
