LCM of two consecutive even numbers
= 180
But, HCF of two consecutive even numbers = 2
Now, product of the given number = HCF x LCM
= 2 x 180
= 360
To find the two consecutive even numbers, we have to factorize 360.
360 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 5
360 = (2 x 3 x 3) x (2 x 2 x 5)
= 18 x 20
∴ The two consecutive even numbers whose LCM is 180 are 18 and 20.
