Question

The lcm and hcf of two numbers are 4125 and 25 respectively one number is 375 find by how much is the second number less than the first

Answer 1

Use the logic

Product of two numbers = lcm x hcf of that two numbers

Hence we have 4125 x 25 = 375 x (unknown number)

Second number = 275

Second number is less than the first by 100.

Answer 2

Answer:

The 2nd number less than the 1st number by => 100

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey Mate,

Given ,

LCM = 4125

HCF = 25

1st Number = 375

2nd Number = X

We all know that,

1st Number  × = LCM  ×  HCF .

So,

375 × 2nd Number  = 4125  × 25

2nd Number = ( 4125 × 25 ) / 375

2nd Number = ( 1,03,125 ) / 375

2nd Number = 275.

The 2nd number less than the 1st number by => 375 -275 = 100
