  1. A
    53
  2. B
    45
  3. C
    33
  4. D
    43

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

We know the fundamental property of numbers that the product of two numbers is equal to the product of their HCF and LCM:
First Number×Second Number=HCF×LCM
Given:

HCF=11

LCM=825

First Number=275

Let the second number be x.

275×x=11×825
x=
275
11×825


Dividing 275 by 11:

11
275

=25
Now, substitute back to find x:

x=
25
825

=33
Thus, the other number is 33.
