The image you've uploaded contains a series of mathematical exercises. I'll extract and solve the problems for you.

Extracted Problems and Solutions:

  1. Problem 1:

    • Complete the table by calculating the GCF (Greatest Common Factor) and LCM (Least Common Multiple) of the given numbers.
    abGCF(a, b)LCM(a, b)
    2436
    1525
    912

    Solution:

    • For a=24a = 24, b=36b = 36:
      • GCF(24, 36) = 12
      • LCM(24, 36) = 72
    • For a=15a = 15, b=25b = 25:
      • GCF(15, 25) = 5
      • LCM(15, 25) = 75
    • For a=9a = 9, b=12b = 12:
      • GCF(9, 12) = 3
      • LCM(9, 12) = 36

    The completed table:

    abGCF(a, b)LCM(a, b)
    24361272
    1525575
    912336
  2. Problem 2:

    • Find the prime factorization of each number.

    Solution:

    • 20=22×520 = 2^2 \times 5
    • 35=5×735 = 5 \times 7
    • 42=2×3×742 = 2 \times 3 \times 7
    • 60=22×3×560 = 2^2 \times 3 \times 5
  3. Problem 3:

    • Evaluate whether the following numbers are prime or composite.
      • 22
      • 99
      • 1717
      • 5151

    Solution:

    • 22 is a prime number.
    • 99 is a composite number.
    • 1717 is a prime number.
    • 5151 is a composite number.
  4. Problem 4:

    • Express the following as a product of prime factors:
      • 1818
      • 2424
      • 4040
      • 8484

    Solution:

    • 18=2×3218 = 2 \times 3^2
    • 24=23×324 = 2^3 \times 3
    • 40=23×540 = 2^3 \times 5
    • 84=22×3×784 = 2^2 \times 3 \times 7
  5. Problem 5:

    • Fill in the missing values in the table based on the highest common factor (HCF) and the least common multiple (LCM).

    Solution:

    • Without the specific table, I can’t fill in exact values. If you provide the missing values or clarify, I can assist further.
