उत्तर

If two positive integers a and b are written as a = x3 y2 and b = xy3; x, y are prime numbers, then HCF (a, b) is xy2.

Explanation:

Given that, a = x3y2 = x × x × x × y × y

And b = xy3 = x × y × y × y

∴ HCF of a and b = HCF (x3y2, xy3)

= x × y × y

= xy2       ...[Since, HCF is the product of the smallest power of each common prime factor involved in the numbers]
