HCF & LCM Odyssey: Navigating Fundamental Concepts

By Dr. Sk. Samsul Alam

HCF & LCM Odyssey: Navigating Fundamental Concepts is a meticulously crafted resource designed to demystify the core principles of Highest Common Factor (HCF) and Lowest Common Multiple (LCM) for a wide audience. This book systematically identifies and organizes 385 elementary concepts of HCF and LCM, presenting them in a clear, sequential manner. It offers a detailed comparison of these concepts with the syllabi of the West Bengal Board of Secondary Education (WBBSE) and the National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT), ensuring alignment with educational standards. Additionally, the book analyzes the application and frequency of these concepts in examinations conducted by WBBSE, the Council for the Indian School Certificate Examinations (CISCE), and Visva-Bharati, providing two comprehensive lists: one combining all three boards and another specific to WBBSE.
To address practical utility, a specialized test was developed focusing on the top three most frequently used HCF and LCM concepts in WBBSE's Madhyamik Pariksha. This test was administered to secondary-level students from Bengali-medium schools in Burdwan district affiliated with WBBSE.
Beyond its technical depth, the book tackles the widespread myth that mathematics is inherently daunting. It provides practical strategies to overcome this fear, drawing from the author's experience as a secondary school teacher. With engaging discussions on challenges within WBBSE and NCERT syllabi, it offers accessible solutions for mastering mathematical problem-solving. This makes it an invaluable tool for school learners, educators, B.Ed. students, curriculum developers, researchers, and anyone passionate about mathematics, fostering confidence and competence in the subject.
