Question

2. If the product of two positive integers is equal to the product of their HCF and LCM is true then, the HCF (32, 36) is

Answer 1

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

32 = 2⁵

36 = 2² × 3²

LCM (32, 36) = 2⁵ × 3²

HCF (32, 36) × LCM (32, 36) = 32 × 36

HCF (32, 36) × 2⁵ × 3² = 32 × 36

HCF (32, 36) = (32 × 36)/2⁵ × 3² = 4
