Step-by-step explanation:
Property 1: The product of LCM and HCF of any two given natural numbers is equivalent to the product of the given numbers. Suppose A and B are two numbers, then. Property 2: HCF of co-prime numbers is 1. Therefore LCM of given co-prime numbers is equal to the product of the numbers.
HCF and LCM
And, Two numbers
To Prove :
Products of two numbers = The product of HCF and LCM
Solution :
Let, x and y be two numbers ,
Let HCF of numbers = H
Let LCM of numbers = L
we dived x and y by H , so the respective quotient be m and n
And m , n are prime to each other .
So, x = m H , y = n H
∴ LCM = L = m n H
Now, Products of numbers
x × y = m H × n H
= H ( m × n × H)
= H × L
∴ x × y = H × L
Or, Products of number x , y = Product of HCF and LCM proved
EXAMPLE :
let two numbers = 12 and 16
So, LCM of 12 ,1 6 = 3 × 4 × 4
i.e LCM of 12 ,1 6 = 48
And
HCF of 12 , 16 is
Factor of 12 = 2 × 2 × 3
Factor of 16 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2
i.e, HCF of 12 , 16 = 2 × 2 = 4
Now,
Products of numbers = 12 × 16 = 192
Products of HCF and LCM = 48 × 4 = 192
Thus, It is proved that - Products of numbers = Products of HCF and LCM
Hence, Products of numbers = Products of HCF and LCM . Proved
