Q:

The product of two numbers is 4107. If the H.C.F of these numbers is 37, then the greater number is 

A) 101 B) 107
C) 111 D) 185
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 111

Explanation:

 Let the numbers be 37a and 37b. Then , 37a x 37b =4107  => ab = 3.

 Now co-primes with product 3 are (1,3)

 So, the required numbers are (37 x 1, 37 x 3) i.e, (37,111).

 Therefore, Greater number = 111.
