find the product of hcf and lcm of 60 , 84 , 108
Answers
Answer:
HCF (60,84,108) is 12
LCM (60,84,108) is 1260
Step-by-step explanation:
60 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 5
84 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 7
108 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3
HCF (60,84,108) = 2 × 2 × 3 = 12
LCM (60,84,108) = 3³ × 2² × 7 × 5 = 1260
Concept:
LCM is the least common factor of the given numbers i.e. the smallest number of given numbers are divisible by the given numbers by and HCF is the Highest Common factor of the given numbers i.e. the given numbers are divisible by the largest number.
Given:
Numbers 60, 84, 108
Find:
We are asked to seek out the product of HCF and LCM.
Solution:
We have,
Numbers 60, 84, 108
So,
To find LCM,
Find factors of given numbers,
i.e.
60 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 5
Now,
84 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 7
Now,
108 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 ×3
So,
HCF of numbers (60, 84, 108) = 2 × 2 × 3 = 12
Now,
LCM of numbers (60, 84, 108) = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 7 × 5 = 3780
So, the product of LCm and HCF = 3780 × 12 = 45360
Hence we can say that the product of LCm and HCF is 45360.
