Hey friend, here is your answer ☺ __________________________
To check whether 25 and 520 can be HCF and LCM of two numbers respectively, we have to check whether HCF is a factor of LCM.
If HCF is a factor of LCM, then it is possible.
Now, 520 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 5 × 13
and 25 = 5 × 5
As u can see, 25 is not a factor of 520.
Therefore, It is not possible for two numbers to have 25 and 520 as their HCF and LCM respectively.
Hope this helps you...
