Question

Two positive integers a and b can be written as a =x³y³ and b = xy³ where x and y are prime number. Find HCF​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a=x3y2

b=xy3

For finding hcf(a,b)

a= x x x y y

b= x y y y

the terms same in both a and b are x y y

x y y = xy2

Hence, HCF(a,b)

x2y2

Answer 2

Answer:

a=x3y2

b=xy3

For finding hcf(a,b)

a= x x x y y

b= x y y y

the terms same in both a and b are x y y

x y y = xy2

Hence, HCF(a,b)=
