Answers
if a and b are positive integers such that a=x cubey y square and b = xy cube , where x,y are prime number , then HCF (a,b)=?
Given that, a =x3y2 = x × x × x × y × y
and b = xy3 = x × y × y × y
∴ HCF of a and b = HCF (x3y2,xy3) = x × y × y = xy2
[Since, HCF is the product of the smallest power of each common prime factor involved in the numbers]
