the sum of two number is 30 amd their Lcm is 36 find the numbers
Answers
The answer is
let the 2 number be x and y
=>The sum of tgd two numbers is 36
=>x+y= 36
=>hcf and lcm are 3 and 105
so yhere are 2 possibilities
1. x and y is divisible by 3
2.105 is a multiple of x and y
if 105 is a multiple of x and y ,then the numbers will be something from this
=>factirs of 105=1,3,5,7,15,21,35,105
The two numbers are 12 and 18.
Given:-
Sum of two number = 30
LCM of two numbers = 36
To Find:-
The two numbers.
Solution:-
We can easily find the two numbers by using the following procedure.
As
Sum of two number = 30
LCM of two numbers = 36
So, HCF of two numbers = 6 (comman multiple)
Let the two numbers be 6x and 6y.
Since,
Sum = 30
6x + 6y = 30
6(x+y) = 30
x+y = 5
LCM = 36
6xy = 36
xy = 6
So, x = 2 and y = 3
On putting the values we get,
6x = 6*2 = 12
6y = 6*3 = 18
Hence, The two numbers are 12 and 18.
