lcm of 2 numbers is 45 times their hcf. if one of the numbers is 125 and the sum of the hcf and lcm is 1150.find the other no.

hi @abhi86 \(\huge \color{red}{\text{Welcome to Open Study}}\ddot\smile\) Do you know this property: product of LCM and HCF = product of 2 numbers. ?

hartnn (hartnn):

take LCM as L. HCF as H, two numbers as x,y so xy=LH x=125. L=45H. L+H=1150. from this., can you find y ?

hartnn (hartnn):

from L=45H and L+H=1150 you can easily find L and H.

hartnn (hartnn):

u get LCM=25, HCF=1125 hence, y=225 is the other number.
