Question

Find two numbers each of three digit such that their gcd is 8 and their LCM is 1768

Answer 1

Answer: The two numbers of three digits such that their gcd is 8 and their LCM is 1768 are 104 and 136.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dividing the LCM by the gcd, we get:

1768/8= 221

Now, factorize the resulted number, 221 as follow:

221= 13x17

There is only two factors, i.e. 13 and 17.

So,

The first number= 8x13= 104

The second number= 8x17= 136
