MARTHS ASSIGNMENT ON HCF AND LCM
Rule 1
To find the greatest number that will exactly divide x, y and z
Required number = HCF of x, y and z
Rule 2
To find the greatest number that will exactly divide x, y and z leaving remainders a, b and c respectively.
Required number = HCF of (x – a), (y – b) and (z – c)
Rule 3
To find the least number that which is exactly divisible by x, y and z
Required number = LCM of x, y and z
