    A 26 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 36 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 43 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 58 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the other number be x. For two numbers a and b: a × b = HCF × LCM 45 × x = 9 × 180 45 × x = 1620 x = 1620 ÷ 45 Divide numerator and denominator by 9: 1620 ÷ 9 = 180 45 ÷ 9 = 5 So, x = 180 ÷ 5 = 36
