Problems on H.C.F and L.C.M
If the sum of two numbers is 55 and the H.C.F. and L.C.M. of these numbers are 5 and 120 respectively, then the sum of the reciprocals of the numbers is equal to:
Let the numbers be 37a and 37b.Then, 37a x 37b = 4107 ab = 3.Now, co-primes with product 3 are (1, 3).So, the required numbers are (37 x 1, 37 x 3) i.e., (37, 111). Greater number = 111.
