Question

full form of HCF and LCM

Answer 1

Answer:

HCF- Highest Common Factor

LCM- Lowest Common Factor

Step-by-step explanation:

for example

take two no.s suppose 12 and 18

LCM = 36

HCF = 6

Answer 2

Answer:

HCF: Highest common factor

LCM: Least common multiple.

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the data given in the question, we need to write the full form of HCF and LCM

HCF: The full form of HCF is "Highest Common Factor".

The HCF of two numbers is the highest number among all the common factors of the given numbers.

For example:

Finding HCF of $4,12$

factors of $4=1,2,4$

Factors of $12=1,2,3,4,6,12$

Common factors of $4,12=1,2,4$

Highest common factor of $4,12=4$

LCM: The full form of LCM is least common multiple.

The LCM of two or more numbers is the least common multiple among all the common multiples of the given numbers.

For example:

Finding LCM of $2,3$

Multiples of $2=2,4,6,8,..$

Multiples of $3=3,6,9,12,...$

Common multiples of $2,3=6,12,..$

Least common multiple of $2,3=6$.
