Using prime factorisation, find HCF and LCM of $\displaystyle 96$ and 120.
Marking-scheme solution
$\displaystyle \begin{array}{l}96=2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3
=2^{5} \times 3
120=2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3 \times 5
=2^{3} \times 3 \times 5
\mathrm{HCF}=24
\mathrm{LCM}=480\end{array}$
