Answer the question below with the correct answer !

1. What is the highest common factor (HCF) of 8 and 12 ?

Use prime factorization

8 12

2 ...
2 ...

2 ...
2 ...

8 = 2 x 2 x...
12 = 2 x 2 x . . .
The common prime factor of 8 and 12 is . . .
2x2=...
So, the highest common factor (HCF) of 8 and 12 is . . .
2. What is the highest common factor (HCF) of 9 and 15 ?
Use prime factorization

9 15

…
… ... ...
9 = ...x...
15 = . . . x . . .
The common prime factor of 9 and 15 is . . .
So, the highest common factor (HCF) of 9 and 15 is . . .
4. What is the highest common factor (HCF) of 9 , 18 and 45 ?
Use prime factorization

9 18 45

… … ...
… ... ...

… ...
… ...

9 = ...x...
18 = . . . x . . . x . . .
45 = . . . x . . . x . . .
The common prime factor of 9, 18, and 45 is . . .
...x...=...
So, the highest common factor (HCF) of 9, 18 and 45 is . . .
5. What is the highest common factor (HCF) of 14 , 21 and 35 ?

14 21 35

… … ...
… ... ...

14 = . . . x . . .
21 = . . . x . . .
35 = . . . x . . .
The common prime factor of 14, 21, and 35 is . . .
So, the highest common factor (HCF) of 14, 21, and 35 is . . .
6. What is the lowest common multiple (LCM) of 8, 12
Use prime factorization

8 12

2 ...
2 ...

2 ...
2 ...

8 =2 x 2 x 2
12 =2 x 2 x 3

LCM = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 = . . .
So, the lowest commom multiple (LCM) of 8 and 12 is . . .
