Answers
Answer:
(i) 26 and 91
Taking the LCM of 26,
26 = 2 × 13 × 1
Taking the LCM of 91,
91 = 7 × 13 × 1
Therefore, LCM of 26 and 91 together = 2 × 7 × 13 × 1 = 182
HCF of 26 and 91 = 13
Now, the product of 26 and 91 = 26 × 91 = 2366
And the product of LCM and HCF = 182 × 13 = 2366
Therefore, LCM × HCF = product of the 26 and 91.
(ii) 510 and 92
Taking the LCM of 510,
510 = 2 × 3 × 17 × 5 × 1
Taking the LCM of 92,
92 = 2 × 2 × 23 × 1
Therefore, LCM of 510 and 92 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 5 × 17 × 23 = 23460
HCF of 510 and 92 = 2
Now, the product of 510 and 92 = 510 × 92 = 46920
And the product of LCM and HCF = 23460 × 2 = 46920
Therefore, LCM × HCF = product of the 510 and 92.
(iii) 336 and 54
Taking the LCM of 336,
336 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 7 × 3 × 1
Taking the LCM of 54,
54 = 2 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 1
Therefore, LCM of 336 and 54 = 3024
HCF of 336 and 54 = 2×3 = 6
Now, the product of 336 and 54 = 336 × 54 = 18144
And the product of LCM and HCF = 3024 × 6 = 18144
Therefore, LCM × HCF = product of the 336 and 54
