Question
The HCF of two 3 digit numbers is 17, and their LCM is
1224. Calculate the difference between the two numbers.Solution
ATQ,
Let the numbers be ‘17x’ and ‘17y’ -------- {Where ‘x’ and ‘y’ should be co-prime number } ATQ, 17xy = 1224 Or, xy = 72 Only possible value of ‘x’ and ‘y’ is 8 and 9. So, the two numbers can be 136 (17 × 8) and 153 (17 × 9) Required dierence = 153 – 136 = 17
- The sum and difference of the L.C.M and H.C.F of two numbers are 540 and 300. If one number is 60, find the other.
- The sum of the HCF and LCM of two numbers is 340, and the LCM is 16 times the HCF. If one of the numbers is 40, find the other number.
