What is the HCF of 0.1, 0.01, 0.001, 0.0001 and 0.00001?
What is the HCF of 0.1, 0.01, 0.001, 0.0001 and 0.00001? Correct Answer 0.00001
Given:
The given numbers are 0.1, 0.01, 0.001, 0.0001 and 0.00001
Formula used:
HCF of fraction = (HCF of numerators)/(LCM of denominators)
Calculation:
Convert the given decimals into the fraction
∴ The terms will be 1/10, 1/100, 1/1000, 1/10000 and 1/100000
Now, by using the formula
∴ HCF of (1/10, 1/100, 1/1000, 1/10000 and 1/100000) = (HCF of (1, 1, 1, 1 and 1))/(LCM of (10, 100, 1000, 10000 and 100000))
⇒ HCF of (1/10, 1/100, 1/1000, 1/10000 and 1/100000) = 1/100000 = 0.00001
Hence, option (4) is correct
