The LCM of two numbers is 20 times their HCF. The sum of the HCF and LCM is 2520. If one of the numbers is 480 the other number is: |
120 90 600 80 |
600 |
LCM = 20 × HCF (given) Let HCF = x LCM = 20x (according to the question) LCM + HCF = 2520 20x + x = 2520 21x = 2520 x = 120 The HCF is 120 The LCM is 2400 One number is 480 Other number is y The product if the two number is = HCF × LCM 480 × y = 120 × 2400 y = 600 |
