Please mark as brain list

Answer 2

Answer:

No, two numbers can't have 15 as their HCF and 175 as LCM because HCF of the numbers must be a factor of the LCM. Since 15 is not a factor of 175, it is not possible. Note: Always remember that LCM is the highest number compared to HCF for two given numbers.
