5th Grade Relation Between
HCF and LCM

Here we will discuss about the relationship between hcf and lcm of two numbers.

Let us consider two numbers, 8 and 12.

8 = 2 × 2 × 2

12 = 2 × 2 × 3

The product of the L.C.M. and H.C.F. = 24 × 4 = 96

The product of the numbers, l.e., 8 × 12 = 96

We observe that the product of the numbers are the same as the product of the L.C.M. and H.C.F. of the numbers

Thus, for two numbers, we find the following relationship.

Product of two numbers = Product of H.C.F. and L.C.M. of the numbers.

Solved Examples on 5th Grade Relation Between HCF and LCM:

1. Find the product of H.C.F. and L.C.M. of 25 and 40.

Solution:

H.C.F. × L.C.M. = Product of two given numbers

Product of the given numbers = 25 × 40 = 1000

So, the product of H.C.F. and L.C.M. of 25 and 40 is 1000.

2. The L.C.M. of 84 and 108 is 756. Find the H.C.F.

Solution:

We know that,

H.C.F. × L.C.M. = Product of the numbers

H.C.F. = $\frac{\textrm{Product of the numbers}}{\textrm{L.C.M.}}$

         = $\frac{84 × 108}{756}$

         = 12

3. The product of two numbers is 1690 and their H.C.F. is 13. Find their L.C.M.

Solution:

We know that,

L.C.M. × H.C.F. = Product of the numbers

L.C.M. = $\frac{\textrm{Product of the numbers}}{\textrm{H.C.F.}}$

         = $\frac{1690}{13}$

         = 130

4. The L.C.M. of two numbers is 120. If their H.C.F. is 20 and one number is 40, find the other number.

Solution:

We know that,

H.C.F. × L.C.M. = One number × Other number

20 × 120 = 40 × Other number

2400 = 40 × Other number

Other number = $\frac{2400}{40}$

                     = 60

Therefore, the required other number is 60.
