Question

Explain the step by step method of division to calculate HCF

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us consider an example.

Find the H.C.F. of 24, 36 and 48.

First we find the prime factors of 24, 36 and 48.

Method of H.C.F.

24 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3

36 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3

48 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3

The common prime factors = 2, 2, 3

H.C.F. = 2 × 2 × 3 = 12

Answer 2

Answer:

H.C.F
