Answer:
Let the two numbers be x and y. Now according to the information given in the question,
x*y = 720
HCF of x,y = (LCM of x,y)/5
So LCM of x,y = 5*(HCF of x,y)
Now, there is a very simple relationship between the HCF, LCM and product of two numbers, i.e.
HCF × LCM = Product of two numbers
If we substitute the values, then we'll get
HCF × 5 × HCF = 720
(HCF)² = 720/5
(HCF)² = 144
HCF = 12

Answer:
LCM = 180
Step-by-step explanation:
Using property Product of 2 numbers = HCF x LCM
720 = 4 x LCM
LCM = 720/4
LCM =180
