Question

the reciprocal of the HCF and LCM of two numbers are 1 by 2 and 1 by 312 respectively if one of the numbers is

Answer 1

Reciprocal of Hcf is 1/12

Therefore, the hcf is 12,

Similarly we can say that the lcm is 312.

Let the other no. be x.

Now, we know that the product of two nos. is equal to their the product of their hcf and lcm.

Therefore,

hcf * lcm=24* x

(12*312)/24=x

x= 156
