Question

The hcf of two numbers is 6 whose lcm is 36. if one of them is 12 the other isthe hcf of two numbers is 6 whose lcm is 36. if one of them is 12 the other is

Answer 1

let the no. 1 be a

let the no. 1 be b

HCF(a,b) = 6

LCM(a,b) = 36

a =12

b = ?

ATQ,

HCF(a,b) * LCM(a,b) = a * b

6 * 36 = 12 * b

6 * 36 / 12 = b

b = 6 * 3

b = 18

the other no. is 18
