Explanation

Product of two numbers = HCF * LCM. 60 * x = 15 * 900. x = (15 * 900) / 60 = 15 * 15 = 225.

AI explanation

By applying the identity Product of two numbers = (LCM x HCF), we can find the missing number. The calculation is (900 x 15) / 60, which simplifies to 13500 / 60. This results in the other number being 225.
