Answer» Correct Answer - Option 3 : C

Given:

The LCM of two numbers is 6 times their HCF.

One of them is 45 and the sum of HCF and LCM is 315.

Formula used:

LCM × HCF = N1 × N2

LCM = least common factor, HCF = Heighest common factor

N1 = first number, N2 = second number

Calculation:

According to the question,

N1 = 45

LCM = 6 HCF

LCM + HCF = 315

⇒ 6 × HCF + HCF = 315

⇒ 7 HCF = 315

⇒ HCF = 315/7

⇒ HCF = 45

⇒ LCM = 6 × HCF 

⇒ LCM = 6 × 45 = 270

Then,

LCM × HCF = N1 × N2

⇒ 270 × 45 = 45 × N2

⇒ N2 = 270

∴ The other number is 270.
