The H.C.F and L.C.M of two numbers are 12 and 336 respectively. If one of the number is 84, the other is

1. 36
2. 48
3. 72
4. 96

Correct Option: B

Here , LCM = 336 , HCF = 12 , First number = 84, Second number = ?
We can find other number with the help of the given formula ,
First number × second number = HCF × LCM
⇒ 84 × second number = 12 × 336

∴ Second number =	12 × 336	= 48
	84
