Problems on H.C.F and L.C.M
The H.C.F and L.C.M of two numbers are 84 and 21 respectively. If the ratio of the two numbers is 1 : 4 , then the larger of the two numbers is
Smallest number of five digits is 10000. Required number must be divisible by L.C.M. of 16,24,36,54 i.e 432, On dividing 10000 by 432,we get 64 as remainder. Required number = 10000 +( 432 – 64 ) = 10368.
Make the number of decimal places in all the given numbers the same i.e., 0.12, 0.15, 0.2 and 0.54LCM of 12, 15, 20 and 542|12 15 20 542|6 15 10 273|3 15 5 275|1 5 5 9 1 1 1 9LCM=22×3×5×9=540 LCM=540/10 =5.4
