Question

the hcf of two number is 23 and their lcm is 1449.if one of the no. is 161 ,find the other

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

HCF * LCM = Product of the two numbers

23 * 1449 = Product of the numbers

One number = 161

So other number = HCF * LCM / One number

                             = 23 * 1449 / 161

                             = 33327 / 161

                             = 207

Hence, the other number is 207 .

Answer 2

✬ Other Number = 207 ✬

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

• HCF of two numbers is 23.
• LCM of two numbers is 1449.
• One number is 161.

To Find:

• What is other number?

Solution: For two numbers a and b , we know that

★ (a x b) = {HCF (a , b) } x {LCM (a , b)} ★

Here a = 161, HCF = 23 and LCM = 1449

And we have to find b

∴ (161 x b) = (23 x 1449)

$\small\implies{\sf }$ b = (23 x 1449)/161

$\small\implies{\sf }$ b = 33327/161

$\small\implies{\sf }$ b = 207

Hence, The other number is 207
