The ratio of two numbers is 2 : 3 and their HCF is 8. Find their LCM.
48
If the numbers are in the ratio 2 : 3 with HCF 8, the numbers are \(2\times8 = 16\) and \(3\times8 = 24\).
Since 2 and 3 have no common factor, the LCM of the two numbers is \(2\times3\times8 = 48\).
The LCM of the two numbers is 48.
