Question

a. Find the HCF of 1247 and 2881 using Long Division Method.

Answer 1

Answer:

43

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 1247< 2881

By using long division method

2881 = 1247 ×2+38

1247 = 387 × 3+86

387=86×4+43

86=43×2+0

The remainder is now 0,So our method stops here. Since in last step, the divisor is 43,

Hence, the HCF of 1247 and 2881 is 43.
