HCF is (Highest common factor) which is the greatest factor b/w given any numbers.
LCM is (Lowest common factor) which is the least number and LCM is exactly divisible by two or more numbers.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution:
Let the other number be x.
As we know that
★ Product of two numbers = (HCF)(LCM) ★
A/q
HCF = 12
LCM = 5040
One number = x
⟹ x × 144 = 12 × 5040
⟹ 144x = 60480
⟹ x = 60480/144
⟹ x = 420
Hence, the other number is x = 420

★ Verification ★
➟ Product of two numbers = HCF × LCM
➟ 420 × 144 = 12 × 5040
➟ 60,480 = 60,480
