if the product of two numbers is 4023 and their HCF is 12 find their LCM
Answers
Answer:
LCM - 355
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets take two number to be 'x' and 'y'
we know that product of numbers is equal to product of HCF and LCM
= x * y = LCM * HCF
4023= LCM * 12 (xy = 4023)
LCM = 4023/12
LCM = 355.25
LCM = 355 app
AnswEr :
- The required LCM = 335.25.
Explanation :
We are given with the product of two numbers as well as HCF, that is,
- Product of two numbers = 4023.
- HCF = 12.
We have to find out their LCM.
⠀_________________________
Now,
Let us consider that, the LCM is "x"
As we are given with product of two numbers and their HCF we know the required formula, that is,
⠀
⠀
→ Product of two given numbers = LCM × HCF.
⠀
⠀
Substituting the given values in the formula,
→ 4023 = x × 12
→ 4023 = 12x
→ 12x = 4023
→ x = 4023/12
→ x = 335.25
Hence, the required LCM is 335.25.
⠀
Verification :
→ Product of two given numbers = LCM × HCF
→ 4023 = 335.25 × 12
→ 4023 = 4023
Clearly, LHS = RHS.
Here both the conditions satisfy, so our answer is correct.
Hence Verified !
