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

101
107
111
185
Explanation:

Let the numbers be 37$ a $ and 37$ b $.

Then, 37$ a $ x 37$ b $ = 4107

$\Rightarrow$ ab = 3.

Now, co-primes with product 3 are $\left(1, 3\right)$.

So, the required numbers are $\left(37 \times 1, 37 \times 3\right)$ i.e., $\left(37, 111\right)$.

$\therefore$ Greater number = 111.
