Question
Using prime factorization, find the HCF and LCM of:
$24, 36, 40$
$24, 36, 40$
✓
Answer
$24 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3 = 2^3 \times 3$
$36 = 2 \times 2 \times 3 \times 4 = 2^2 \times 3^2$
$40 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 5 = 2^3 \times 5$
HCF $(24, 36, 40) = 2^2 = 4$
LCM $(24, 36, 40) = 2^3 \times 3^2 \times 5 = 360$
$36 = 2 \times 2 \times 3 \times 4 = 2^2 \times 3^2$
$40 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 5 = 2^3 \times 5$
HCF $(24, 36, 40) = 2^2 = 4$
LCM $(24, 36, 40) = 2^3 \times 3^2 \times 5 = 360$
