The HCF of two numbers is (84) and their LCM is (5460). If the numbers are taken as (84r) and (84s), what is the value of (rs)?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: (65)
Step 1: After taking out HCF (84), (r) and (s) are coprime. Step 2: LCM (=84rs=5460), so (rs=65). Step 3: First divide the LCM by the HCF.
