Best answer
Correct Answer - Option 3 : 72

Given 

Ratio of two numbers is 2 ∶ 3

HCF =12

Formula used

LCM × HCF = Product of two numbers

LCM = Product of two numbers/HCF

Calculation

Let the numbers be 2x and 3x

⇒ Numbers = 24 and 36

⇒ LCM = (24 × 36)/ 12

⇒ LCM =72

∴ The LCM of the numbers is 72.
