Q3(ii):
Find the LCM and HCF of the following integers by applying the prime factorisation method. (ii) 17, 23 and 29
Solution :
Given: Three integers: $17$, $23$, and $29$.
To find: The Highest Common Factor (HCF) and the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of the given integers using the prime factorisation method.
Step 1: Prime Factorisation of the given integers
We express each number as a product of its prime factors:
For $17$: Since $17$ is a prime number, its only factors are $1$ and itself.
$17 = 17^1 \times 1^1$
For $23$: Since $23$ is a prime number, its only factors are $1$ and itself.
$23 = 23^1 \times 1^1$
For $29$: Since $29$ is a prime number, its only factors are $1$ and itself.
$29 = 29^1 \times 1^1$
Step 2: Finding the HCF
The Highest Common Factor (HCF) is defined as the product of the smallest power of each common prime factor in the numbers.
Comparing the prime factors of $17$, $23$, and $29$:
The prime factors are $17$, $23$, and $29$. There are no common prime factors other than $1$.
Therefore, $HCF(17, 23, 29) = 1$.
Step 3: Finding the LCM
The Least Common Multiple (LCM) is defined as the product of the greatest power of each prime factor involved in the numbers.
The prime factors involved are $17$, $23$, and $29$. The greatest power of each is $1$.
$LCM(17, 23, 29) = 17^1 \times 23^1 \times 29^1$
Calculation:
First, multiply $17$ and $23$:
$17 \times 23 = 17 \times (20 + 3) = 340 + 51 = 391$
Next, multiply the result by $29$:
$391 \times 29 = 391 \times (30 - 1)$
$= (391 \times 30) - (391 \times 1)$
$= 11730 - 391$
Performing the subtraction:
$11730 - 391 = 11339$
Therefore, $LCM(17, 23, 29) = 11339$.
Final Answer: The HCF is 1 and the LCM is 11339.
