Question

using prime factorization find the HCF and LCM of 23 and 31 ​

Answer 1

Answer:

HCF = none.

LCM = 713

Step-by-step explanation:

Prime Factorization - HCF

23= 23

31=31

Both 23 and 31 are prime numbers. Hence, there are no HCF here, if strictly speaking in Mathematics language.

Prime Factorization - LCM

23= 23

31= 31

Hence, the Lowest Common Multiple will be:

23 x 31 = 713.
