The HCF of two numbers is 23 and their LCM is 1449. If one of the numbers is 161, find the other

Answer»

Let the two numbers be a and b. 

Let the value of a be 161. 

Given: HCF = 23 and LCM = 1449 

We know, a × b = HCF × LCM 

⇒ 161 × b = 23 × 1449 

⇒ ∴ b = 23 ×1449/ 161 = 33327/161 = 207 

Hence, the other number b is 207.
