Three numbers are in ratio 1: 2 : 3 and HCF is 12. The numbers are:
12, 24, 36
11, 22, 33
12, 24, 32
5, 10, 15
Explanation: Since the numbers are given in the form of ratios that means their common factors have been canceled. Each one's common factor is HCF. And here HCF = 12, hence, the numbers are 12, 24, and 36. Alternatively, let the numbers be x, 2x, and 3x. The HCF in x 2x and 3x is x because 1, 2, and 3 are prime. Hence, x = 12; then the other numbers are 24 and 36.

The atmospheric greenhouse effect is produced mainly by the:
Absorption and re-emission of visible light by the atmosphere
Absorption and re-emission of ultraviolet radiation by the atmosphere
Absorption and re-emission of infrared radiation by the atmosphere
Absorption and re-emission of visible light by clouds
Absorption and re-emission of visible light by the ground
Explanation: Answer: Option C Solution: The greenhouse effect is the process by which radiation from a planet's atmosphere warms the planet's surface to a temperature above what it would be without this atmosphere. Radiatively active gases (i.e., greenhouse gases) in a planet's atmosphere radiate energy in all directions. Part of this radiation is directed towards the surface, warming it. [3] The intensity of the downward radiation – that is, the strength of the greenhouse effect – will depend on the atmosphere's temperature and on the number of greenhouse gases that the atmosphere contains.
