1 1 vote I guess 4 paris are possible We know that hcf is higest common factor in both numbers which is 20 here. Both numbers will be multiple of 20. remaining factors of the numbers is 800/20 = 40 we just need to distribute the prime factors (2*2*2*5) of 40 to both numbers with 20. supoose both numebrs are A and B A B 2 *20 =40 2*2*5*20 =400 5*20=100 2*2*2*20 =160 2*2*20=80 2*5*20=200 2*2*2*5*20 =800 1*20=20 A*B =LCM * HCF = 800*20 = 16000 khushtak answered May 14, 2016 khushtak 1.1k points comment Share Follow See all 3 Comments 3 3 Comments reply Vijay Thakur 34 points commented Jan 15, 2017 reply Follow flag if A=40 and B=400 then HCF is 40 not 20 if A=80 and B=200 then HCF is 40 not 20 1 1 replyShare lambda 38 points commented Aug 1, 2018 reply Follow flag Yes, hence the answer is 2 0 0 replyShare pavankumarchokkapu 10 points commented Dec 27, 2024 reply Follow flag are you really doing the questions madam 0 0 replyShare Please log in or register to add a comment.
