Question

1. If a and b are two positive co-prime integers such that a = 12b, then HCF (a, b) =
=​

Answer 1

Answer:

b

Step-by-step explanation:

coprimes means having no common factors except 1...and since.a & b are coprime...

hcf(a, b ) = 1

now...a = 12b which implies...

hcf ( a, b) = hcf (12b, b) = b

Note : b is the highest number which divides 12b & b
