Answer:
The required other number is 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
- The GCF of two numbers = 3
- The LCM of the two numbers = 180
- One of the numbers = 180
To find :
the other number
Solution :
Let the other number be 'a'
GCF × LCM = The product of two numbers
3 × 180 = 180 × a
a = (3 × 180)/180
a = 3
∴ The other number is 3

- GCF of two numbers = 3
- LCM of two numbers = 180
- one number = 180.
- other number = ?
━━━━━━━━━━━━━
We know that :
[tex] GCF×LCM = PRODUCT of two numbers. [/tex]
Then,
3×180 = 180× other number
other number = 3.
