Find the lcm and hcf of 13 and 11 by using fundamental theorem of arithmetic |
|
Answer» Answer: FUNDAMENTAL THEOREM OF ARITHMETIC : According to the fundamental theorem of arithmetic EVERY COMPOSITE number can be factorised as a product of primes and this factorization is UNIQUE apart from the order in which the prime factor occurs. •Fundamental theorem of arithmetic is also called unique factorization theorem. •Composite number = product of prime numbers. •Any Integer greater than 1, either be a prime number or can be written as a product of prime factors. •HCF of two or more numbers = Product of the SMALLEST power of each common prime factor involved in the numbers. •LCM of two or more numbers = Product of the greatest power of each prime factor involved in the numbers with highest power.
