Find the HCF and LCM of 60,,84,108 using prime factorization method
Answers
84 =2*2*3*7
108=2*2*3*3*3
Hcf(60,84,108)=2*2*3=12
Lcm=2*2*3*5*7*3*3(multiply and write the product)
HCF of 60 , 84 , 108 is 12 and LCM of 60 , 84 , 108 is 3780
Given :
The numbers 60 , 84 , 108
To find :
The HCF and LCM of the numbers
Concept :
HCF :
For the given two or more numbers HCF is the greatest number that divides each of the numbers
LCM :
For the given two or more numbers LCM is the least number which is exactly divisible by each of the given numbers
Solution :
Step 1 of 4 :
Write down the given numbers
The given numbers are 60 , 84 , 108
Step 2 of 4 :
Prime factorise the given numbers
60 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 5
84 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 7
108 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3
Step 3 of 4 :
Find HCF
The required HCF
= 2 × 2 × 3
= 12
Step 4 of 4 :
