Question

the LCM of two nos is 6 times their HCF.if the HCF is 12 and one of the nos is 36,then find the other no

Answer 1

Answer:

The number is =24

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the information provided in the  question it is given as

L C M of two numbers =6 H C F

H C F = 12

Second number = y = 36  

We need to find the another number

Let us assume first no is =x =?

Second number is  = y = 36

It is given in the question that

L C M of two numbers =6 H C F

                                     = 6 x 12

                                     =72

So by using the formula  we get the answer

L C M  x H C F   =  Product of two numbers

Putting the value of L C M and H  C F  and one number  

$72\times 12= x\times 36\\864=36x\\x=\frac{864}{36} \\x= 24$

As x is considered to be the first number  = 24
