Find two numbers between 100 and 150 with HCF 24
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
2 integers between 100/24 and 150/24 are 5 and 6, hence 5*24 = 120 and 6*24 = 144 are two numbers between 100 and 150 that have an HCF of 24.
120 and 144 are two numbers between 100 and 150 with HCF 24
Given:
- Two numbers between 100 and 150 with HCF 24
To Find:
- The Numbers
Solution:
HCF Highest common factor of given numbers is the largest factors which divides all the given numbers perfectly.
HCF = product of common factors of least power
Step 1:
Assume that two numbers are
24a , 24b
where a and b are co prime as 24 is the HCF
Step 2:
Find Multiples of 24 Between 100 and 150
120 , 144 (Multiples of 24 are 24 , 48 , 96 , 120 , 144 , 168 , ...)
Step 3:
Find value of a and b
24a = 120 => a = 5
24b = 144 => a = 6
5 and 6 are co primes Hence satisfies the condition
Hence, 120 and 144 are two numbers between 100 and 150 with HCF 24
