Question

Can two numbers have 12 as their hcf and 350 as their lcm?give reason​

Answer 1

HCF of two numbers is the factor of the LCM of those two numbers. Thus, if we divide the LCM by HCF of those numbers, we get the remainder as 2. So, two numbers cannot have 12 as their HCF and 350 has their LCM as it leaves 2 as a remainder.
