Description : The LCM of two numbers is 45 times their HCF. If one of the numbers is 125 and the sum of HCF and LCM is 1150, then the other number is? a) 100 b) 125 c) 250 d) 225 e) 180

Last Answer : LCM = 45× HCF LCM + HCF = 46× HCF = 1150 HCF = 25, LCM =1125. product of 2 numbers = LCM×HCF required number = (25× 1125) / 125 = 225. Answer: d)

If 40 percent of a number is subtracted from the second number then the second number is reduced to its 3/5. Find the ratio between the first number and the second number. A) 1:3 B) 1:2 C) 1:1 D) 2:3 E) None of these

Description :  If 40 percent of a number is subtracted from the second number then the second number is reduced to its 3/5. Find the ratio between the first number and the second number. A) 1:3 B) 1:2 C) 1:1 D) 2:3 E) None of these

Last Answer : Answer: C [ b – (40/100)a] = (3/5)b. So we get a = b. 1:1
