ASSERTION & REASON WORKSHEET
1. REAL NUMBERS
1. Assertion (A) : If product of two numbers is 5780 and their HCF is 17, then their LCM is 340.
Reason (R) : HCF is always a factor of LCM.
2. Assertion (A) : 2 is a prime number.
Reason (R) : The square of an irrational number is always a prime number.
3. Assertion (A) : If HCF of 510 and 92 is 2, then the LCM of 510 & 92 is 32460.
Reason (R) : as HCF (a, b) × LCM (a, b) = a × b
4. Assertion (A) : The HCF of two numbers is 5 and their product is 150. Then their LCM is 40.
