Question

The HCF and LCM of two numbers are 30 and 840, respectively. If the first number is divided by 2, then the quotient is 60. The second number is:

A.

150

B.

190

C.

170

D.

210

Correct option is D

Given:
HCF of two numbers = 30
LCM of two numbers = 840
First number / 2 = 60, therefore the first number is 120.
Formula Used:
Product of two numbers = HCF × LCM
If the first number is a and the second number is b, then: a × b = HCF × LCM
Solution:
As given ;
a = 60 × 2 = 120
as we know,
a × b = HCF × LCM
Substituting the values, we get:
120 × b = 30 × 840
120 × b = 25200
b=25200120=210b = \frac{25200}{120} = 210 ​
Thus, the second number is 210.
