First number = 2 x 44 = 88
Second number = (LCM x HCF ) / First numberCorrect Option: C
First number = 2 x 44 = 88
Second number = (LCM x HCF ) / First number
∴ Second number = 44 x 264 / 88 = 132.

Let the numbers be 2x and 3x.
So, their LCM = 6x
However, the LCM is given as 48
∴ 6x = 48Correct Option: C
Let the numbers be 2x and 3x.
So, their LCM = 6x
However, the LCM is given as 48
∴ 6x = 48
⇒ x=8
So, the numbers are 16 and 24.
Hence, their sum is 40.
