Question

If two positive integers p and q can be expressed as p = ab2 and q = a3b, where a and b are prime numbers, find their LCM and HCF and also verify that LCM (p,q) × HCF (p,q) = p × q

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

this is verification by product of number

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Factors of p=a×b×b

Factors of q=a×a×a×b

Therefore, L.C.M. of p and q is =a×b×b×a×a

=a 3 b 2
