Question

the HCF and LCM of two number is 6 and 8 respectively if one of the number is 30 find the other number​

Answer 1

• HCF = 6

• LCM = 8

• One of the number is 30

________ [GIVEN]

• We have to find the other number.

_____________________________

Let other number be M

We know that..

Product of two numbers = LCM × HCF

=> 30 × M = 8 × 6

=> 30M = 48

=> M = 48/30

=> M = 1.6

______________________________

$\textbf{Other number is 1.6}$

_________ [ANSWER]

______________________________

✡ Verification :

Product of two numbers = LCM × HCF

30 × 1.6 = 8 × 6

48 = 48

So, the other number is 1.6 (Hence proved)

______________________________

Answer 2

Let other number = x

Product of two numbers = LCM × HCF

30 × x = 8 × 6

30x = 48

x = 48/30

x = 1.6
