Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : a2 GIVEN: HCF and LCM of two numbers is ‘a – b’ and ‘a + b’ respectively. One number = (1 – b2/a2) CALCULATION: We know that : HCF × LCM = First number × Second number (a – b) × (a + b) = [1 – (b2/a2)] × Second number Second number = [(a – b) (a + b)]/[1 – (b2/a2)] Second number = (a2 – b2)/[(a2 – b2)/a2)] Second number = a2 |
