Questions and Answers

What is the relationship between the HCF, LCM, and the two numbers?

  • The average of the numbers equals the HCF multiplied by the LCM.
  • The sum of the numbers equals the HCF multiplied by the LCM.
  • The difference of the numbers equals the HCF multiplied by the LCM.
  • The product of the numbers equals the HCF multiplied by the LCM. (correct)
  • Given that one number is 45 and the HCF is 3, which calculation can be used to find the other number?

  • Other number = HCF + LCM
  • Other number = HCF / LCM
  • Other number = LCM / HCF (correct)

    Study Notes

    Relationship between HCF, LCM, and Numbers

    • The product of two numbers is equal to the product of their HCF and LCM.
    • The HCF is the highest common factor of two numbers, representing the largest number that divides both of them evenly.
    • The LCM is the least common multiple of two numbers, representing the smallest number that is a multiple of both.

    Finding the Other Number

    • Calculation: To find the other number, use the formula:

      • (Number 1 * Number 2) = HCF * LCM
      • Rearranged to solve for Number 2: Number 2 = (HCF * LCM) / Number 1
    • Applying to the example:

      • Number 1 = 45
      • HCF = 3
      • LCM = (45 * Number 2) / 3
      • To find Number 2, we need the LCM.

    Determining Factors of the LCM

    • If the LCM of two numbers is 1170, it indicates that 1170 is divisible by both numbers.
    • Any number that is a factor of the LCM (1170) shares a common factor with both numbers.
    • Since the HCF is 3, both numbers have 3 as a factor.

    Implication of Sharing the Same HCF

    • If two numbers share the same HCF of 3, it means that both numbers are divisible by 3.
    • It does not necessarily imply they have other common factors, but it guarantees that they have 3 in common.
