Question

If HCF (16, y) = 8 and LCM (16, y) = 48, then the value of y isImmersive Reader (1 Point) (a) 24 (b) 16 (c) 8 (d) 48

Answer 1

Answer:

Hey mate

HCF × LCM = the product of number

8 × 48= 16×Y

384= 16× Y

384÷16=Y

24 = Y

so the answer is (a) 24

hope it will help you

Answer 2

Given,

HCF (16, y) = 8 and LCM (16, y) = 48

One number is 16

To Find,

Value of y =?

Solution,

HCF (16, y) = 8

LCM (16, y) = 48

We know that, LCM (a,b) × HCF (a,b) = a × b

therfore, LCM (16,b) × HCF (16,b) = 16 × y

(48) * (8) = 16 * y

y = 384/16

y = 24

Hence, the value of y is 24.
