Second number is 100 less than first number.

Given that:

LCM of two numbers = 4125

HCF of two numbers = 25

One number = 375

Let the other number = x

Formula used:

LCM × HCF = Product of two number

According to the question:

→ 4125 × 25 = 375 × x

→ x = (4125 × 25)/375

→ x = 275

To find:

How much is a second number less than the first number?

Finding the difference between both the numbers:

= First number - Second number

= 375 - 275

= 100

Answer 2

Answer:

Second number is 100 less than first number.

Given that:

LCM of two numbers = 4125

HCF of two numbers = 25

One number = 375

Let the other number = x

Formula used:

LCM × HCF = Product of two number

According to the question:

→ 4125 × 25 = 375 × x

→ x = (4125 × 25)/375

→ x = 275

To find:

How much is a second number less than the first number?

Finding the difference between both the numbers:

= First number - Second number

= 375 - 275

= 100
