Find the LCM and HCF of the following using prime
factorization method
455 and 78
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
455 = 5 × 13 × 7
78 = 2 × 3 × 13
HCF = 13
LCM = 2730
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution by Prime Factorization
List all prime factors for each number.
Prime Factorization of 78 is:
2 x 3 x 13 => 2 x 3 x 13
Prime Factorization of 455 is:
5 x 7 x 13 => 5 x 7x 13
For each prime factor, find where it occurs most often as a factor and write it that many times in a new list.
The new list is
2, 3, 5, 7, 13
Multiply these factors together to find the LCM.
LCM = 2 x 3 x 5 x 7 x 13 = 2730
In exponential form:
LCM = 2 x 3 x 5 x 7 x 13 = 2730
LCM = 2730
Therefore,
LCM(78, 455) = 2730

HCF Solution by Factorization:
The factors of 78 are: 1, 2, 3, 6, 13, 26, 39, 78
The factors of 455 are: 1, 5, 7, 13, 35, 65, 91, 455
Then the greatest common factor is 13.
