Answer 2

Given:

• LCM of two numbers is 72 .
• HCF of two numbers is 6.
• One of the number is 18.

To Find:

• The other number.

Steps of Solving:

Let us take the another number be x .

Now ,we know a relationship between HCF ,LCM and the two numbers as ,

$\large{\underline{\boxed{\red{\sf{\hookrightarrow HCF\times LCM = Product\:of\:two \:numbers}}}}}$

Using above formula ,

$\sf{\implies x\times 18=6\times72}$

$\sf{\implies x=\dfrac{6\times\cancel{72}}{\cancel{18}}}$

$\sf{\implies x= 6\times 4}$

${\underline{\boxed{\red{\bf{\leadsto x=24}}}}}$

Hence the other number is 24.
