Example Find the Highest Common Factor (HCF) and Lowest Common Multiple (LCM) of 80 and 50. First write both 80 and 50 as the product of prime factors. 80=2X 40 =2x2%20=2x2%2%10=2x2%2x2x5= 50=2% 25=2x5x5=2xF ‘The HCF is found by looking at the prime factorisation and examining the elements that are in both numbers. 80 and 50 both have a 2 and a5 in the prime factorisation so the HCF is2 x 5=10. ‘The LCM is found by taking the HCF and multiplying it by the bits in each prime factorisation that are eft over. For 80, we do not use 2 for the HCF and for 50 we do not use a 5. So the LCM = HC x 2 x5 =10x 8 x 5= 400. x5 uber fas and sequences P| Exercise 5 1.
