Read Solution (Total 2)
-
- 720 -> 2^4 * 3^2 * 5^1
To find the max. power of 720, it is enough to find the maximum power of "5"... Since 5 is the largest prime factor here...
77/5^1 + 77/5^2 + 77/5^3 = 15+2+0 = 17 [Quotient only]
Max. power of 5 is 17... Hence max. power of 720 is "17"...
Ans : 17 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(6) No(2)
- 77/5=15
15/5=3
so no of 5 is the maximum power of n
no of 5 =15+3;
=18 Ans - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(0)
