The HCF of two numbers is 12 and their lcm is 36 if one number is 9 find the other number

Given:

HCF = 12

LCM = 216

One number = 108

Formula used:

HCF × LCM = Product of both numbers

Calculation:

Let one number be x and other be y

According to the question, x = 108

According to concept,

HCF × LCM = xy

⇒ 12 × 216 = 108 × y

⇒ 216 = 9 × y

⇒ y = 24

∴ The other number is 24.
