Question

The HCF of two numbers is 8 and their LCM is 48.If one
number is 16, find the other.

Answer 1

H.C.F = 8

L.C.M = 48

One of the two numbers = 16

We know,

H.C.F × L.C.M = Product of numbers

48 × 8 = 16 × number

number = 48×8/16

number = 48/2

number = 24

Hence, the other number is 24.
