Given:

Find the HCF of 22 × 35 × 53, 24 × 32 × 5.

Formula used:

The HCF of two numbers is found by taking the lowest power of each prime factor common to both numbers.

Calculation:

Prime factorization:

Number 1: 22 × 35 × 53

Number 2: 24 × 32 × 5

Common prime factors and their lowest powers:

2: min(2, 4) = 2

3: min(5, 2) = 2

5: min(3, 1) = 1

HCF = 22 × 32 × 5

⇒ HCF = 4 × 9 × 5

⇒ HCF = 180

∴ The correct answer is option 3.
