Question

Prime factorisation HCF of 24 40 and 56

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

FOR FINDING THE HCF OF 24 , 40 & 56 WE HAVE TO DO PRIME FECTORISATION OF ALL THESE GIVEN NUMBERS SEPARATELY WE HAVE ,

FACTORS OF 24 ,40 & 56 ARE ,

24 = 3 × 2 × 2 × 2

40 = 2 × 2 × 5 × 2

56 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 7

WE ARE TAKING THOSE NUMBERS AT ONCE WHICH ARE COMMON IN ALL THREE FETORS WE HAVE ,

2 × 2 × 2 = 8

SO , THE HCF OF 24 , 40 & 56 IS = 8

FINAL ANSWER IS = 8
