If the LCM of two numbers is 12 times their HCF and the sum of LCM and HCF is 403, and one number is 93, find the other number.

Correct Option: 1
Let HCF = xx \newline Then LCM = 12x12x
Given: LCM + HCF = 403403
12x+x=40312x + x = 403 \newline 13x=40313x = 403 \newline x=31x = 31
So, HCF = 3131 and LCM = 372372
Given one number = 9393 \newline Let other number = nn
Using property: Product of numbersHCF=LCM\frac{\text{Product of numbers}}{\text{HCF}} = \text{LCM}
93×n31=372\frac{93 × n}{31} = 372
93×n=11,53293 × n = 11,532 \newline n=124n = 124
Therefore, the other number is 124124
