Three measuring rods are 6 cm, 4 cm and 8 cm long. Find the shortest length that can be measured exactly by each one of these rods.


Options:
A .   32 cm
B .   24 cm
C .   40 cm
D .   48 cm
Answer: Option B
:
B

To find the shortest length that can be measured exactly by using each one of these rods, we need to find the LCM of their lengths.


26,4,823,2,423,1,233,1,11,1,1


LCM =2×2×2×3=24 cm
Therefore, 24 cm is the shortest length that can be measured exactly by each one of these rods.
