find the hcf and lcm of 275 225 175 by using prime factorization method
Answers
Answer:
HCF is 25
LCM is 275....
Answer:
The factors of 175 are: 1, 5, 7, 25, 35, 175
The factors of 225 are: 1, 3, 5, 9, 15, 25, 45, 75, 225
The factors of 275 are: 1, 5, 11, 25, 55, 275
Then the highest common factor is 25.
______________________________________________
Prime Factorization of 175 is:
5 x 5 x 7 => 5^2 x 7^1
Prime Factorization of 225 is:
3 x 3 x 5 x 5 => 3^2 x 5^2
Prime Factorization of 275 is:
5 x 5 x 11 => 5^2 x 11^1
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
3, 3, 5, 5, 7, 11
Multiply these factors together to find the LCM.
LCM = 3 x 3 x 5 x 5 x 7 x 11 = 17325
In exponential form:
LCM = 3^2 x 5^2 x 7^1 x 11^1 = 17325
LCM = 17325
Therefore,
LCM(175, 225, 275) = 17,325
