    Given , LCM = 378 , HCF = 18 , First number = 54 , Second number = ?
    As We know that ,

    Second number =
    HCF × LCM
    First number

    Correct Option: A

    Given , LCM = 378 , HCF = 18 , First number = 54 , Second number = ?
    As We know that ,

    Second number =
    HCF × LCM
    First number

    Second number =
    18 × 378
    = 126
    54


  1. The LCM of two numbers is 520 and their HCF is 4. If one of the number is 52, then the other number is

    Given that , LCM = 520 , HCF = 4 , First number = 52, Second number = ?
    We can find other number with the help of the given formula ,
    First number × second number = HCF × LCM
    ⇒ 52 × second number = 4 × 520

    Correct Option: A

    Given that , LCM = 520 , HCF = 4 , First number = 52, Second number = ?
    We can find other number with the help of the given formula ,
    First number × second number = HCF × LCM
    ⇒ 52 × second number = 4 × 520

    ⇒ Second number =
    4 × 520
    = 40
    52



  1. The HCF of two numbers is 15 and their LCM is 225. If one of the number is 75, then the other number is :

    Given , LCM = 225 , HCF = 15 , First number = 75 , Second number = ?
    As We know that ,
    First number × Second number = HCF × LCM
    ⇒ 75 × Second number = 15 × 225

    ∴ Second number =
    15 × 225
    75

    Correct Option: D

    Given , LCM = 225 , HCF = 15 , First number = 75 , Second number = ?
    As We know that ,
    First number × Second number = HCF × LCM
    ⇒ 75 × Second number = 15 × 225

    ∴ Second number =
    15 × 225
    = 45
    75


  1. The HCF and product of two numbers are 15 and 6300 respectively. The number of possible pairs of the numbers is

    Here , HCF = 15
    Let the number be 15p and 15q, where p and q are co – prime.
    With the help of the given formula ,
    HCF × LCM = Product of two numbers
    ∴ 15p × 15q = 6300

    ⇒ pq =
    6300
    = 28
    15 × 15

    Correct Option: C

    Here , HCF = 15
    Let the number be 15p and 15q, where p and q are co – prime.
    With the help of the given formula ,
    HCF × LCM = Product of two numbers
    ∴ 15p × 15q = 6300

    ⇒ pq =
    6300
    = 28
    15 × 15

    So, two pairs are ( 7 , 4 ) and ( 14 , 2 ) .
    Hence , required answer is 2.



  1. The H.C.F. of two numbers is 96 and their L.C.M. is 1296. If one of the number is 864, the other is

    Here , LCM = 1296 , HCF = 96 , First number = 864 , Second number = ?
    As We know that ,
    First number × Second number = HCF × LCM
    ⇒ 864 × Second number = 96 × 1296

    Correct Option: D

    Here , LCM = 1296 , HCF = 96 , First number = 864 , Second number = ?
    As We know that ,
    First number × Second number = HCF × LCM
    ⇒ 864 × Second number = 96 × 1296

    ⇒ Second number =
    96 × 1296
    = 144
    864
