Discussion Forum : Problems on H.C.F and L.C.M - General Questions (Q.No. 18)
18.
The ratio of two numbers is 3 : 4 and their H.C.F. is 4. Their L.C.M. is:
12
16
24
48
Answer: Option
Explanation:

Let the numbers be 3x and 4x. Then, their H.C.F. = x. So, x = 4.

So, the numbers 12 and 16.

L.C.M. of 12 and 16 = 48.

The product of HCF 18 and LCM 16 is?

Can anyone help to get the answer?

YAsh said:   1 year ago
The formula of LCM :

LCM = HCF * X * Y,
LCM = 4 * 4 * 3,
LCM = 48.

The product of two numbers is 724 and HCF is 4 then find the LCM?

Arul said:   7 years ago
How x=3 why not 4?

LCM*HCF=product.
X*4=3x*4x.
X=3.

You can't get 48 by 4/192 you can get 48 by 192/4.

Hcf = product/lcm.
= 3*4+4*4/4.
= 48.

3/4=4/LCM.
LCM/3=4 * 4,
LCM=16 * 3,
LCM=48.

4x*3x = 12x.
12x= 4(hcf),
So x=3.
How 4?

3:4 = 3*4 = 12.

12*HCF = 12*4 = 48.
