H.C.F and L.C.M – A Case Study of Completeness Property of Real Numbers

Manoj Kumar Srivastav

Abstract

In the basic mathematics H.C.F and L.C.M are an important concept related to factors or multiples of numbers . The calculation of H.C.F or L.C.M mainly follows the factorization of given numbers into prime numbers. The largest common factor of two or more numbers is called the highest common factor (HCF). Lowest Common Multiple is the smallest positive number that is a multiple of two or more numbers. In the present paper it is tried to show that the whole theory follows the completeness property of real numbers.

Keywords

H.C.F, L.C.M, completeness, real numbers.
