Math Problem Statement

Let A be the set of positive dividers of 30° B be the set of positive dividers of 60° and C the set of positive dividers of 90° then find (A∩B∩C∩)

Solution

To solve this, we first find the positive divisors of each number and then determine their intersection.

Step 1: Find divisors of each number

  1. Divisors of 30: 1,2,3,5,6,10,15,301, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 30
  2. Divisors of 60: 1,2,3,4,5,6,10,12,15,20,30,601, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 30, 60
  3. Divisors of 90: 1,2,3,5,6,9,10,15,18,30,45,901, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 15, 18, 30, 45, 90

Step 2: Find the intersection of these sets

We take the common divisors in all three sets:

ABC={1,2,3,5,6,10,15,30}A \cap B \cap C = \{1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 30\}

Answer

The intersection ABCA \cap B \cap C is: {1,2,3,5,6,10,15,30}\{1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 30\}

Would you like further details on the steps?

Here are 5 related questions to explore this concept:

  1. What are the divisors of 120, and how would they intersect with ABCA \cap B \cap C?
  2. How can we find the intersection of divisors of more than three numbers systematically?
  3. Why are prime factors useful in finding common divisors?
  4. What are the divisors of a prime number like 7, and how does it affect intersections?
  5. How would this method change if we considered only odd divisors?

Tip: To find common divisors, breaking numbers into prime factors can help quickly identify shared factors across multiple sets.
