Question

The hcf of two number is 3 and their lcm is is 36 if one of the number is 12 what is the other

Answer 1

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that,

HCF of two numbers*LCM of two numbers=the product of two numbers

HCF=3

LCM=36

so the product of two numbers  is= 3*36

                                                          =108

now

 the unknown number is x

so,

  12*x=108

or,12x=108

or,x=108/12

or,x=9

 

 SO THE OTHER NUMBER IS 9

ANSWER IS 9
