Given the HCF (Highest Common Factor) and one of the numbers, we can find the other number using the relationship between HCF and LCM.

We know that for two numbers a and b,

HCF(a,b)×LCM(a,b)=a×b

Here, you have one number; 725 and the HCF as 145, and the LCM as 2175.

Let the unknown number be x.
Therefore, we have,
145 × 2175 = 725 × x

x = 145 × 2175725

x = 435

Therefore, the other number is 435.
