The product of two numbers is 6845, if the HCF of the numbers is 37, then the greater number is:
As we know that $$LCM\times\ HCF\ =\ one\ number\times\ another\ number$$
$$LCM\times\ 37\ =\ 6845$$
$$LCM=\frac{6845}{37}$$
LCM =Â 185Â Â Eq.(i)
Let's assume the numbers are 37a and 37b.
So the LCM of 37a and 37b is 37ab.
Hence 37ab is equal to Eq.(i).
37ab = 185
ab = 5
If the value of a = 1, then the value of b = 5.
Similarly, If the value of a = 5, then the value of b = 1.
greater number =Â $$37\times\ 5$$
=Â 185
