Question

The product of two numbers is 2208 lcm is 552 then hcf

Answer 1

Answer:

The HCF of both numbers is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of two numbers is 2208 lcm is 552.

We know that,

Product of two numbers = LCM × HCF

$2208=552\times HCF$

$\frac{2208}{552}=HCF$

$4=HCF$

Therefore the HCF of both numbers is 4.

Answer 2

The HCF of the two numbers is 4 when the LCM IS 552

Solution:  

LCM – Lowest Common Factor

HCF – Highest Common Factor

Given: Product of two numbers = 2208

           LCM = 552

Therefore using the below formula we get the HCF by using the following steps  

Product of two numbers = $\bold{\text { Number } 2 \times \text { Number } 2=H C F \times L C M}$

As per the above equation 2208 = $552 \times H C F$  

On re-arranging the equation we get HCF = $\bold{\frac{2208}{552}}$=4
