There are two numbers A and B (A > B) of two-digits each and their HCF is 18. If LCM and HCF of B and 45 are 270 and 9 respectively and the difference between digits of A is 5, then what is the LCM of A and B?
There are two numbers A and B (A > B) of two-digits each and their HCF is 18. If LCM and HCF of B and 45 are 270 and 9 respectively and the difference between digits of A is 5, then what is the LCM of A and B? Correct Answer 216
Given:
LCM and HCF of B and 45 are 270 and 9 respectively.
Formula Used:
First number × Second number = HCF × LCM
Calculation:
B × 45 = 9 × 270
⇒ B = 54
∵ HCF of A and B is 18 and A is greater B.
⇒ Possible values of A = 72 and 90
∵ The difference between the digits of A is 5. So, the value of A must be 72.
∴ LCM of A and B = LCM of 72 and 54
= 216
