Question

Find the HCF of  3x2yz,5xy2z,12x2y2z23x^2yz, 5xy^2z, 12x^2y^2z^2​.

A.

180xyz

B.

xyz

C.

180x5y5z5x^5y^5z^5​​

D.

180x2y2z3x^2y^2z^3​​

Correct option is B

Given:

3x²yz, 5xy²z, 12x²y²z²

Solution:

Factor each expression.

3x²yz = 3 × x × x × y× z

5xy²z = 5 × x × y × y × z

12x²y²z² = 2 × 2 × 3 × x × x × y × y × z × z

Common variable factors:

- x appears at least once in all → x

- y appears at least once in all → y

- z is also present in all three 

Common numerical factor:

Only 1 is common among 3, 5, and 12 → 1

Multiply all common factors:

HCF = 1 × x × y × z = xyz

HCF = xyz
