If the HCF of two numbers is (32) and their LCM is (1536), what will be the total power of (2) in their product?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: (14)
Step 1: (32=2^5) and (1536=2^9\times3). Step 2: Product equals HCF times LCM, so the power of (2) is (5+9=14). Step 3: Add exponents when multiplying powers with the same base.
