If the HCF of two numbers is (2^3\times3^2) and their LCM is (2^6\times3^5\times5), what will be the total power of (3) in their product?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: (7)
Step 1: Product of two numbers equals HCF times LCM. Step 2: The powers of (3) are (2) and (5), so the total power is (7). Step 3: Exponents of the same base add during multiplication.
