If the LCM of two numbers is 12 times their HCF and the sum of LCM and HCF is 403, and one number is 93, find the other number.

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 1

Let HCF = xx

Then LCM = 12x12x

Given: LCM + HCF = 403403

12x+x=40312x + x = 403

13x=40313x = 403

x=31x = 31

So, HCF = 3131 and LCM = 372372

Given one number = 9393

Let other number = nn

Using property: Product of numbersHCF=LCM\frac{\text{Product of numbers}}{\text{HCF}} = \text{LCM}

93×n31=372\frac{93 × n}{31} = 372

93×n=11,53293 × n = 11,532

n=124n = 124

Therefore, the other number is 124124
