HCF of 18 and 15
18 = 2 x 3 x 3
15 = 3 x 15 = 3
LCM of 18 and 15 = 2 x 3 x 3 x 5 = 90
∴ Product of HCF and LCM of both numbers = 3 x 90 = 270Correct Option: D
HCF of 18 and 15
18 = 2 x 3 x 3
15 = 3 x 15 = 3
LCM of 18 and 15 = 2 x 3 x 3 x 5 = 90
∴ Product of HCF and LCM of both numbers = 3 x 90 = 270

Product of LCM and HCF = Product of two numbers
Correct Option: D
Let the other number = N
Product of LCM and HCF = Product of two numbers
Then, N x 75 = 15 x 225
∴ N = (15 x 225)/75 = 45

Let the numbers are N, 2N and 3N.
Where, N = HCFCorrect Option: B
Let the numbers are N, 2N and 3N.
Where, N = HCF
Given that, N = 23
∴ The numbers are 23, 46 and 69.
- The HCF and LCM of two numbers m and n are respectively 6 and 210. If m + n = 72, then 1/m + 1/n is equal to

We have, m x n = 6 x 210 = 1260
∴ 1/m + 1/nCorrect Option: D
We have, m x n = 6 x 210 = 1260
∴ 1/m + 1/n = (m + n)/mn = 72/1260 = 4/70 = 2/35
- The ratio of two numbers is 5 : 6 and their LCM is 480, then their HCF is

Let numbers are 5N and 6N.
Now, HCF of these two numbers is N.
We know that,
LCM x HCF = Product of two numbersCorrect Option: B
Let numbers are 5N and 6N.
Now, HCF of these two numbers is N.
We know that,
LCM x HCF = Product of two numbers
⇒ 480 x N = 5N x 6N
⇒ 480N = 30N2
⇒ N =16
