  1. The LCM of two numbers is 44 times of their HCF. The sum of the LCM and HCF is 1125. If one number is 25, then the other number is
    1. 1100
    2. 975
    3. 900
    4. 800
Correct Option: A

Let the HCF of two numbers be H . then
According to question ,
LCM = 44H
∴ 44H + H = 1125
⇒ 45H = 1125

∴ H =
1125
= 25
45

∴ LCM = 44 × 25 = 1100
As we know that ,
First number × Second number = LCM × HCF
⇒ 25 × Second number = 1100 × 25
∴ Second number =
1100 × 25
= 1100
45
