The LCM of two numbers is 5301 and their LCM is 9. If one of the numbers is 171, find the other number.

(A) 179

(B) 279

(C) 379

(D) 479

Ans: B

The required number = $${LCM × HCF} / {First number}$$ = $${5301 × 9} / {171}$$ = 279.

Question: 2

The H.C.F. and L.C.M. of two numbers are 44 and 264 respectively. If the first number is divided by 2, the quotient is 44. The other number is

(A) 66

(B) 132

(C) 264

(D) 384

Ans: B

First number = 2 × 44 = 88

Second number = $${44 × 264} / {88}$$ = 132.

Question: 3

(A) 174

(B) 184

(C) 194

(D) 204

Ans: B

H.C.F. of 10857 and 15087 is 141.

The least number of cut pieces = (10857 + 15087) ÷ 141

= 184.

Question: 4

L.C.M. of two numbers is 225 and their H.C.F. is 5. If one number is 25, the other number will be

(A) 25

(B) 35

(C) 45

(D) 55

Ans: C

Other number =$${ 225 × 5} / {25}$$ = 45
