The correct Answer is:
To express the H.C.F. of 30 and 36 in the form of \(30x + 36y\), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Find the H.C.F. of 30 and 36 To find the H.C.F. (Highest Common Factor) of 30 and 36, we can use the prime factorization method. - **Prime factorization of 30**: \[ 30 = 2 \times 3 \times 5 \] - **Prime factorization of 36**: \[ 36 = 2^2 \times 3^2 \] The common prime factors are \(2\) and \(3\). The lowest powers of these common factors are: - For \(2\): \(2^1\) - For \(3\): \(3^1\) Thus, the H.C.F. is: \[ H.C.F. = 2^1 \times 3^1 = 6 \] ### Step 2: Express H.C.F. in the form \(30x + 36y\) We need to express \(6\) in the form \(30x + 36y\). From the equation: \[ 6 = 30x + 36y \] We can rearrange it to find integer values for \(x\) and \(y\). ### Step 3: Find integer solutions for \(x\) and \(y\) We can express \(6\) in terms of \(30\) and \(36\). Let’s start by manipulating the equation: \[ 6 = 36 \cdot 1 - 30 \cdot 1 \] This gives us: \[ 6 = 30(-1) + 36(1) \] From this equation, we can see that: - \(x = -1\) - \(y = 1\) ### Final Expression Thus, we can express the H.C.F. of 30 and 36 in the required form: \[ 6 = 30(-1) + 36(1) \] ### Summary The H.C.F. of 30 and 36 is \(6\), and it can be expressed as: \[ 6 = 30(-1) + 36(1) \]
