01 If the HCF of (120), (180), and (300) is found, what will be the power of (2) in it?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: C. (2)
Explanation: Step 1: Compare the powers of (2). Step 2: (120=2^3\times3\times5), (180=2^2\times3^2\times5), and (300=2^2\times3\times5^2), so the smallest power is (2). Step 3: HCF uses the smallest power.
