Number SystemModerateSSC GD 2024

The HCF and LCM of two numbers are 12 and 180 respectively. If one of the numbers is 36, what is the other number?

  1. (A)72
  2. (B)48
  3. (C)5
  4. (D)60

Correct answer: (D) 60

For any two numbers, product of the numbers = HCF × LCM. So the other number = (12 × 180) ÷ 36 = 2160 ÷ 36 = 60.

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