Why did u multiply both numbers by 13
BTW thanx
13 is HCF. So if we multiply ratio by 13 we will get the number which is divided by 13 and by doing this the ratio will not get affected

let the numbers be x and y.
so x/y = 15/11 = (15/11)m,where m is any positive integer.
so, x = 15m
y = 11m
now,x is a multiple of 13
= 15m is a multiple of 13
so,m = 13
so,X=195 and Y=143
so x/y = 15/11 = (15/11)m,where m is any positive integer.
so, x = 15m
y = 11m
now,x is a multiple of 13

Thanx a lot dear friend
