Question

m=pq^3 n=p^3q^2 find hcf​

Answer 1

Answer:

Two positive integers are expressed as follows:

`m= pq^3`

`n = p^3,q^2`

p and q are prime numbers.

Then, taking the smallest powers of p and q in the values for m and n we get

HCF `(m,n)=pq^2

Answer 2

Answer:

Two positive integers are expressed as follows:

`m= pq^3`

`n = p^3,q^2`

p and q are prime numbers.

Then, taking the smallest powers of p and q in the values for m and n we get

HCF `(m,n)=pq^2`

Hence the correct choice is (b).
