Math Problem Statement
HCF of two numbers 36 and 90 is 18. Find the LC
Solution
The relationship between the Highest Common Factor (HCF) and the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of two numbers is given by the formula:
In this case, the numbers are 36 and 90, and the HCF is 18. Let be .
First, calculate the product of 36 and 90:
Now, solve for :
Thus, the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 36 and 90 is 180.
