Question

' if two positive integen y' and gare written as 'y=xpower3 y power2 z power and g=x ypower3 p power5?

where x, y are prime numbers Find HCF of 'a' and 'b then​

Answer 1

Explanation:

HCF by using the prime factorization method.

Step1:

Find the prime factorization of each of the number

Step2:

The product of all common prime factor is the HCF

Here,

⇒a=x×x×y×y

⇒b=x×y×y

common Factors are x×y×y

Thus ,

HCF(a,b)=xy
