Prime factorization of 48, 72 and 108 is,
Question Image

Prime factors of 48, 72 and 108 are,

48 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 72 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 108 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3

The L.C.M of 48, 72 and 108 is,

⇒ 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3 ⇒ 432

The H.C.F of 48, 72 and 108 is,

⇒ 2 × 2 × 3 ⇒ 12

Therefore, L.C.M of 48, 72 and 108 is 432 and H.C.F is 12.
Hence, option 3 is correct.
