Question

If hcf a,b=x and lcm a,b=y what is relation among a,b,x and y?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

ab = xy

Step-by-step explanation:

this is true for only two numbers

Answer 2

The relation between a,b,x and y is

$\bf \red{xy = ab }$

Given:

• If hcf a,b=x and lcm a,b=y.

To find:

• What is relation among a,b,x and y?

Solution:

Concept to be used:

If 'a' and 'b' are two numbers then their is a relationship between numbers and their HCF and LCM, it is

$\bf HCF(a,b) \times LCM(a,b) = a \times b$

Note*: It is applicable for two numbers only.

Step 1:

In this question, it is given that

LCM(a,b)= y

HCF(a,b)= x

Numbers are a and b.

Step 2:

Write the relationship.

According to the theory discuss above, we can write

$xy = ab$

Thus,

The relation between a,b,x and y is

$\bf xy = ab$
