    sum of the LCM and HCF is 1965 and one of the numbers is 245, find the other number. 
    A 35 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 40 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 45 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 80 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Given: LCM = 392 × HCF LCM + HCF = 1965 One number = 245 Let other number = x Let HCF = h So, LCM = 392h From LCM + HCF = 1965:

    LCM = 392×5 = 1960 Use: LCM × HCF = Product of numbers
