Question

The ratio between two numbers is 5 : 6 and their LCM is 150. Find the numbers.

Answer 1

Answer:

The ratio of two numbers is 5 : 6 and their LCM is 150. ∴ the sum of these number is 11x = 55.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Given :

It is given that :

• Ratio of the two numbers = 5:6

• LCM of those numbers = 150

To find :

We have to find the numbers with the given conditions.

Solution :

Le the unknown constant be x.

So the numbers are :

• 5x

• 6x

LCM of 5x and 6x is 30x.

Now, we get :

☞ 30x = 150

☞ x = 150/30

☞ x = 5

Therefore, the numbers are :

• 5x = 5(5) = 25

• 6x = 6(5) = 30
