HCF and LCM of two numbers are 11 and 825 respectively. If one number is 275, find the other number.
- A53
- B45
- C33
- D43
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.
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.
