Answer» It is given that If TWO positive integers a and b are written as a = x³y² and b = xy³ , where x, y are prime NUMBERS. we have to find the value of HCF(a, b), here a = x³y² = x²(xy²) and b = xy³ = (xy²)y we know HCF means highest common factor. so, find hcf of a and b and get the hcf of a and b. here we see highest common factor is xy². so, HCF(a, b) = xy² also read SIMILAR questions : if two positive integers a and b are written as a=x3y2 and b=xy3;x,y are prime numbers,then VERIFY lcm (a,b) x hcf (a,b)... if a, b and c be the distances travelled by the body during xth yth and zth SECOND from start, then which of th... |
