Number SystemModerateSSC CHSL 2024

The HCF and LCM of two numbers are 4 and 84 respectively. If one of the numbers is 12, what is the other number?

  1. (A)32
  2. (B)7
  3. (C)24
  4. (D)28

Correct answer: (D) 28

For any two numbers, product of the numbers = HCF × LCM. So the other number = (4 × 84) ÷ 12 = 336 ÷ 12 = 28.

Shortcut: Other number = HCF × LCM ÷ given number.
