Question
The total of two numbers is 130. If their LCM is 432 and
HCF is 12, determine the smaller number.Solution
ATQ,
Let the smaller number = βxβ
Greater number = (130 β x)
Product of the numbers = product of their LCM and HCF
Or, x(130 β x) = 12 Γ 432
Or, 130x β xΒ² = 5184
Or, xΒ² β 130x + 5184 = 0
Or, xΒ² β 72x β 58x + 5184 = 0
Or, x(x β 72) β 58(x β 72) = 0
Or, (x β 72)(x β 58) = 0
Or, x = 72, 58
When x = 72, (130 β x) = 58
Therefore, x = 58
So, the smaller number = 58
