HCF and LCM of two numbers is ‘a – b’ and ‘a + b’ respectively. If one number is ‘1 – b2/a2’, then find another number.1. a22. a2 – b3. a4. ab

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
