The product of two numbers is 6845, if the HCF of the number is 37, then the greater number is: |
111 37 148 185 |
185 |
The numbers are 37x and 37y L.C.M × H.C.F = product of two numbers ⇒ L.C.M × 37 = 6845 ⇒ L.C.M = 185 ⇒ 37xy = 185 ⇒ xy = 5 So, x = 1, y = 5 or x = 5, y = 1 ⇒ The greater number is 37 × 5 ∴ Greater Number = 185 |
