Answer:
not support the answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is to be noted that all the three : HCF, the two numbers divide the LCM completely.
To find the two numbers when HCF and LCM are given, we proceed as follows:
I step: Divide the LCM by the HCF
II step: Split the quotient into two factors.
III step: Multiply each factor with HCF.
The two products are the required two numbers.
We may get multiple answers depending on the number of pairs of factors of the quotient we obtain when we divide LCM by HCF. However, care should be taken to see that the pair of thus obtained do not yield an HCF greater than what is given.
