Question

The product of two numbers is 4107. If the H.C.F. of these numbers is 37, then the greater number is:
A.101
B.107
C.111
D.185

Answer 1

Given :

Product of two numbers = 4107

HCF = 37

To Find :

The greater number

Solution :

Let the LCM is x

According to the given question

Product of two numbers = HCF x LCM

$= > 4107 = 37 \times x$

$= > x = \dfrac{4107}{37}$

$= > x = 111$

The greater number is 111.

Verify -

37 x 111 = 4107.

Hence, Option (C) - 111 is the required answer.
