Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. 5040

The LCM of 165, 176, 385, and 495 is k.

165 = 11 × 15

176 = 11 × 16

385 = 11 × 35

495 = 11 × 45

Here HCF = 11

LCM = 11 × 5 × 7× 9 × 16

When k is divided by the HCF of the numbers, the quotient is p.

So (11 × 5 × 7× 9 × 16)/11 = 5040 = p
