Question

The product of two numbers is 242 and their LCM is 22 find their HCF

Answer 1

Answer:

The Correct Answer is HCF = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the property that

LCM X HCF = Product of two numbers

Therefore,

22 X HCF = 242

HCF = 242/22

HCF = 11

Answer 2

Given: The product of the two numbers is $242$and their LCM is$22$.

We have to find the HCF.

As we know that the product of LCM and HCF of any two given natural numbers is equivalent to the product of the given numbers.

We are solving in the following way:

We have,

The product of the two numbers is $242$and their LCM is$22$.

From the above statement we can write:

$\Rightarrow HCF\times LCM=242\\\Rightarrow HCF \times 22=242\\\Rightarrow HCF=242\div22\\\Rightarrow HCF=11$

Hence, the HCF of the above numbers will be$11$.
