1.Factorization method :
Resolve each one into product of prime factors. Then LCM is product of
highest powers of all factors.
Problems:
Therefore
Sol:
20–14=6
25-19=6
35-29=6
40-34=6
2 252
2 126
3 63
3 21
7
prime factor is 2 *2 * 3 * 3 *7
1095)1168(1

So, HCF is 73
Therefore
Sol:
HCF of 108,36,90
36)90(2
72
----
18)36(2
36

HCF is 18.
Sol:
Therefore
HCF is
2x)3x(1
2x
-----
x)2x(2
2x
--------
0
-------------
HCF is x so, x is 12
Sol:
a + b =216/27=8
numbers=(27 * 1 ), (27 * 7)
=27,89
9.LCM of two numbers is 48..The numbers are in ratio 2:3.
Sol:
LCM of 2x,3x is 6x
Therefore
6x=48
x=8.
Sum=16 +24=40.
10.HCF and LCM of two numbers are 84 and 21.If ratio of
Sol:
Then x * 4x = 84 * 21
x2 =84 * 21 /4
x = 21
13,14.Largest number is
Sol:
23 * 14 is Largest number.
Sol:
910)1001(1
910
------------
91)910(10
910
--------
0
---------
Therefore HCF=91
divisible by 5,6,4,3 ?
2 * 2*2*2*3*5=240
Answer is 3600.
