The product of 2 numbers 1-655LCM is 131 What is the HCE 2 |
|
Answer» Step-by-step explanation:The HCF and LCM of two numbers is 131 and 8253, respectively. If one number is 917, can you FIND the other? Let us SEE an example. Consider two numbers 27 and 36. Let us factorize them, 27 = 3 x3 x3 36 = 2 x2 x3 x3 HCF of 27 and 36 = 9, and LCM = 2x2x3x3x3 = 108. Multiply LCM and HCF: 9x108 = 972. Next multiply the two numbers: 27x36 = 972. So the product of the two numbers is the same as the product of their HCF and LCM. Following the same principle in the current problem: HCF X LCM = 131x8253 = 1081143 So if one number is 917, the other number is 1081143/917 = 1179. Check: 917 = 7x131 1179 = 131x9. HCF = 131, and LCM = 7x9x131 = 8253. Correct. |
