Question

Find the LCM and HCF of 408 and 170 by applying the fundamental theorem
E arithmetic​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Fundamental theorem of arithmetic says that every composite number can be factorised as a product of primes

The numbers are 408&170

408= 2³*3*17

170=2*5*17

So,the highest power of each factor is the LCM and HCF is the smallest power of each common factor

HCF=2*17=34

LCM=2³*3*5*17=2040
