Question:
If the product of two numbers is 1080 and their HCF is 30, find their LCM.
Solution:
It is given that the product of two numbers is 1080.
Let the two numbers be a and b.
Therefore,
$a \times b=1080$
HCF is 30.
We need to find the LCM
We know that the product of two numbers is equal to the product of the HCF and LCM.
Thus,
$\mathrm{LCM}=\frac{a \times b}{\mathrm{HCF}}$
$\mathrm{LCM}=\frac{1080}{30}$
$\mathrm{LCM}=36$
Hence the LCM is 36
