Question

find the HCF of the following number using prime factorisation​

Answer 1

HCF = 5 × 5 × 5 × 5 = 5⁴ = 625

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN NUMBER

625

___________________________

TO FIND

HCF

___________________________

625 / 5

= 125

125 / 5

= 25

25 / 5

= 5

5 / 5

= 1

HCF = 5 × 5 × 5 × 5 = 5⁴ = 625

How to calculate HCF of any number using prime factorization

• Take a given number.

• Take a smallest number by which a given number get divide.

• Again take a smallest number by which a given number get divide.

• Do this step till the one comes as reminder.

• Now multiply all the numbers which you take to divide 625.

• HCF will get by prime factorization method.
