Answer:
No ,2 numbers cannot have HCF as 15 and LCM as 175 . Because LCM>HCF and HCF of 2 numbers should divide the LCM completely. Here , the 1st criteria is fulfilled but the 2nd criteria is not. Since 175/15=35/3= 11 2/3 ∉ N.

NO, TWO NUMBERS CAN'T HAVE 15 AS THEIR HCF AND 175 AS THEIR LCM BECAUSE HCF MUST BE A FACTOR OF THE LCM.
SINCE 15 IS NOT A FACTOR OF 175 , IT IS NOT POSSIBLE.
HOPE THIS HELPS YOU
