Question

If two positive integers p&q can be expressed as p=a^2b and q=ab^2 where a ,b being prime numbers then what is hcf of p&q

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

If two positive integers p and q are written as p = a^2b^3 and q = a^3b; a, b are prime numbers, then verify : LCM (p, q) x HCF (p, q) = pq. If two positive integers p and q are written as p = a2b3 and q = a3b; a, b are prime numbers, then verify : LCM (p, q) x HCF (p, q) = pq
