Question

The H.C.F and the LCM of two numbers are 36 and 720 respectively. If one of the numbers is 180, which is the other number. *

Answer 1

let p(x)=180

LCM=720

HCF=36

WE HAVE TO FIND q(x)=?

as we know that

p(x)×q(x)=LCM×HCF

NOW WE HAVE TO FIND q(x)

q(x)=LCM×HCF/p(x)

q(x)=720×36/180

q(x)=25920/180

q(x)=144

i hope this will help you

Answer 2

144

Explanation:

HCF(a,b)*LCM(a,b)=ab

36*720=180*x

x= 36*720/180

x= 144
