Question

If two positive integer a and b are expressible in the form a=pq2 and b=p3q;p,q being prime numbers then hcf(a,b)is

Answer 1

If a be

Pq^2 and

b be p^3q then hcf will be p^2q

Remember the rule as we find hcf of suppose 4 and 10 we write the factors and then find the common factors plz mark as brainiest

Answer 2

The H.C.F. of a and b is pq.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given numbers are

$a=pq^2$

$b=p^3q$

Factor form of each number is

$a=p\times q\times q$

$b=p\times p\times p\times q$

$H.C.F=p\times q=pq$

Therefore, the H.C.F. of a and b is pq.

24 and 36 lcm and hcf.
