(iv) 22, 121 and 33
(v) 34, 85 and 51
Answer-2
(i) L.C.M. of 18, 24 and 96
(i) By prime factors
Prime factors of 18 = 2 x 3 x 3
Prime factors of 24 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3
Prime factors of 96 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3
L.C.M. = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 = 288
By common division method
L.C.M. of 18, 24 and 96 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 4 = 288
Question -3.
The H.C.F. and the L.C.M. of two numbers are 50 and 300 respectively. If one of the numbers is 150, find the other one.
Answer-3
H.C.F. = 50
L.C.M. = 300
Product of L.C.M. and H.C.F. = 300 x 50 = 15000
One number = 150
The other number
H.C.F. x L.C.M. = 1st number x 2nd Number
50. x 300. = 150 x 2nd Number
15000 = 150 x 2nd Number
150 x 2nd Number = 15000
2nd Number = 15000 / 150
2nd Number = 100
Question -4.
The product of two numbers is 432 and their L.C.M. is 72. Find their H.C.F.
Answer-4
Here, product of two number = 432
L.C.M. = 72
HCF = ?
Product of L.C.M. and H.C.F. = Product of two numbers
72 x HCF = 432
H.C.F. = 432 / 72 = 6
Question 5.
The product of two numbers is 19,200 and their H.C.F. is 40. Find their L.C.M.
Answer-5
Question- 6.
Find the smallest number which, when divided by 12, 15, 18, 24 and 36 leaves no remainder
Answer-6
The least number which is exactly divisible by each given number is their L.C.M.
Therefore Required number will be L.C.M. of 12, 15, 18, 24 and 36.
LCM =2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 5 x 2
=360
Required number will be =360
Question -7.
Find the smallest number which, when increased by one is exactly divisible by 12, 18, 24, 32 and 40
Answer-7
First calculate LCM of 12, 18, 24, 32 and 40
LCM = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 4 x 5
=1440
But Required Number = 1440 -1
= 1439
Question- 8.
Find the smallest number which, on being decreased by 3, is completely divisible by 18, 36, 32 and 27.
Answer-8
LCM of 18, 36, 32 and 27
LCM of 18, 36, 32 and 27 = 2 x 2 x 3 x3 x 8
LCM of 18, 36, 32 and 27 = 864
Hence Required Number = 864 + 3 = 867

Question -4.
The product of two numbers is 12096 and their H.C.F. is 36. Find their L.C.M.
Answer-4
product of two numbers = 12096
H.C.F. = 36
L.C.M. = ?
We know that
Product of two numbers = Product of their H.C.F. and L.C.M.
=> 12096 = 36 x L.C.M.
=> L.C.M. = 12096 / 36
= 336
Question -5.
The product of the H.C.F. and the L.C.M. of two numbers is 1152. If one number is 48, find the other one.
Answer-5
We know that:
Product of two numbers = Product of their H.C.F. and L.C.M.
=> 1st number x 2nd number = Product of their H.C.F. and L.C.M.
=> 48 x 2nd number = 1152
=> 2nd number = 1152 / 48 = 24
Question- 6.
(i) Find the smallest number that is completely divisible by 28 and 42.
(ii) Find the largest number that can divide 28 and 42 completely.
Answer-6
We know that the least number which is divisible by 28 and 42 is their L.C.M.
