3. Find the LCM and HCF of the following integers by applying the prime factorisation
method.
(i) 12, 15 and 21 (ii) 17,23 and 29
(iii) 8,9 and 25
Given that HCF (306.657) = 9. find LCM (306.657).
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
(i) 12, 15 and 21
Factor of 12=2×2×3
Factor of 15=3×5
Factor of 21=3×7
HCF (12,15,21)=3
LCM (12,15,21)=2×2×3×5×7=420
(ii) 17, 23 and 29
Factor of 17=1×17
Factor of 23=1×23
Factor of 29=1×29
HCF (17,23,29)=1
LCM (17,23,29)=1×17×23×29=11,339
(iii) 8, 9 and 25
Factor of 8=2×2×2×1
Factor of 9=3×3×1
Factor of 25=5×5×1
HCF (8,9,25)=1
LCM (8,9,25)=2×2×2×3×3×5×5=1,800
