Question

find the lcm of 96 and 404 by the prime factorisation method

Answer 1

hy there here is the best answer
HCF of 96 and 404 by prime factorisation method:-
Since, 96 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3
and, 404 = 2 × 2 × 101
So, HCF of 96 and 404 = Product of common prime factors
= 2 × 2 = 4
LCM = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 101 × 3
= 9696
Hope this help u and good luck:)

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a=404 and b=96

Expressing the number as a product of prime number

404=2×2×101

96=2×2×2×2×2×3

∴ LCM of 404 and 96 is 2×2×2×2×2×101×3=9696

∴ HCF of 404 and 96 is 2×2=4

Now HCF×LCM=4×9696=38784

Product of two given numbers 404×96=38784

Hence HCM×LCM= product of two given numbers.
