Answer 2

Answer :


We know " A Prime Number can be divided evenly only by 1 or itself. And it must be a whole number greater than 1. "

Or we can say these numbers does't have any common factor .

So
As a , b are two prime numbers , So

a = a × 1
b = b × 1
So,
HCF ( a and b ) = 1

And


LCM ( a and b ) = a × b
