Question

If two positive a and b are written as a = x^3y^3 and b = xy^3, where x, y are prime numbers, then find their HCF.

Pls answer this....​

Answer 1

Answer:

HCF = $xy^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

a=x3y2

b=xy3

For finding hcf(a,b)

a= x x x y y

b= x y y y

the terms same in both a and b are x y y

x y y = xy2

Hence, HCF (a,b)  = $xy^{2}$
