Answer 2

Answer:

Other number is 153

Step-by-step explanation:

Usually, the product of the HCF and LCM will be the product of the 2 numbers in question.

The HCF and LCM are given as 9 and 459.

While one of the numbers used to find the HCF & LCM was 27.

Let the other number be y.

Thus;

27y = 459 × 9

y = 459 × 9/27

y = 153
