Question

The LCM of two numbers is 60. If the product of the two numbers is 180, find their HCF.
Maths

Answer 1

Answer:

1st step = divide the product of two numbers from the LCM of two numbers

2nd step = you do 180/60 = 3

3rd step = hence the HCF of two numbers is 3

Answer 2

Answer:

HCF of two numbers = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

$\maltese \: \: \underline{\bold{Given \: :}}$

• LCM of two numbers = 60

• Product of two numbers = 180

$\maltese \: \: \underline{\bold{To \: Find \: :}}$

• HCF of two numbers = ?

$\maltese \: \: \underline{\bold{Solution \: :}}$

We know that

Product of two numbers = LCM of two numbers × HCF of two numbers

According to the Question,

180 = 60 × HCF of two numbers

⇒ $\frac{180}{60}$ = HCF of two numbers

⇒ 3 = HCF of two numbers

⇒ HCF of two numbers = 3

∴ HCF of two numbers = 3
