Use GCF instead of HCF. 6 and 30 would be those numbers...
The product of the GCF and LCM of a pair of numbers is equal to the product of the numbers.
The HCF of both numbers is 6
The HCF is always a factor of the LCM of two numbers. The HCF is a factor of both the numbers which are factors of their LCM. Thus the HCF is also a factor of the LCM of the two numbers.
To find the HCF of 20 and 30, break them down into their prime factors: 20 = 2x2x5 30 = 2x3x5 The next step is to identify any common prime factors. In this case both numbers have a 2 and a 5 as prime factors. Multiply these together and you get: 2x5 = 10 Therefore the HCF of 20 and 30 is 10.
