  Method-3: Listing out the multiples


















               Relation between HCF and LCM:


                     The product of LCM and HCF of the given natural numbers is equivalent to

                       the product of the given numbers.
                                      i.e LCM × HCF of a number = Product of the Numbers

                     Consider two numbers A and B, then

                                    Therefore, LCM (A , B) × HCF (A , B) = A × B
                     Ex- Show that the LCM (6, 15) × HCF (6, 15) = Product(6, 15)

                       Solution: LCM and HCF of 6 and 15

                                       LCM of 6 and 15 = 30
                                        HCF of 6 and 15 = 3

                             So, LCM (6, 15) × HCF (6, 15) = 30 × 3 = 90
                                        Product of 6 and 15 = 6 × 15 = 90

                       Hence, LCM (6, 15) × HCF (6, 15) = Product (6, 15) = 90
