HCF(336,54) = 6
LCM(336,54) = 3024
We have,
336 = 2⁴ × 3 × 7
54 = 2 × 3³
_____________________________
HCF(336,54) = Product of common terms with lowest power
HCF(336,54) = 2 × 3
HCF(336,54) = 6

LCM(336,54) = Product of prime factors with highest power
LCM(336,54) = 2⁴ × 3³ × 7
LCM(336,54) = 16 × 27 × 7
LCM(336,54) = 432 × 7
LCM(336,54) = 3024
Product of given numbers = their HCF × their LCM
336 × 54 = 6 × 3024
18144 = 18144
•°• LHS = RHS
Hence, verified.
