The HCF of two numbers is 27 and their LCM is 162. If one of the numbers is 54, what is the other number? (a) 36 (b) 45 (c) 9 (d) 81 |
|
Answer» (d) 81 Let the two numbers be x and y. It is given that: x = 54 HCF = 27 LCM = 162 We know, x × y = HCF × LCM ⇒ 54 × y = 27 × 162 ⇒ 54 y = 4374 ⇒ ∴ y = 4374/54 = 81 |
