Best answer
Correct Answer - Option 2 : 12

Given:

The ratio of the number = 15 : 6 : 7

LCM of the number = 2520

Calculation:

Let the number be 15x, 6x and 7x

LCM of 15x, 6x and 7x is 210x

210x = 2520

⇒ x = 2520/210 = 12

⇒ x = 12

HCF of 15x, 6x and 7x is x

So HCF of the numbers is 12

∴ The HCF of the numbers is 12.
