Answer:
Generally when they give two numbers in factor form with powers such that the factors are same for both number we have to take hcf as the product of the factors with the least powers and LCM as the product of the factors with the highest powers.
( prime factors )
Step-by-step explanation:
a = x³y²
b = xy³
HCF(a,b) = xy²
LCM(a,b) = x³y³
