The LCM of two core prime numbers is 80 find the sum of this number

1.	The LCM of two core prime numbers is 80 find the sum of this number
Answer» The TWO numbers which have only 1 as their common factor are called co-primes. For example, Factors of 5 are 1,5 Factors of 3 are 1,3 Common factors is 1. So they are co-prime numbers. To find their LCM, we then choose each prime number with the greatest power and MULTIPLY them to get the LCM. =>LCM=3×5=15 Hence, LCM of two co-prime numbers is their product. please MARK me as brainliest

Answer»

The TWO numbers which have only 1 as their common factor are called co-primes.

For example, Factors of 5 are 1,5

Factors of 3 are 1,3

Common factors is 1.

So they are co-prime numbers.

To find their LCM, we

then choose each prime number with the greatest power and MULTIPLY them to get the LCM.

=>LCM=3×5=15

Hence, LCM of two co-prime numbers is their product.
