The HCF or Highest Common Factor of two or more numbers is the greatest common factor of the given set of numbers.
- In other words, HCF is the greatest number that exactly divides two or more given numbers.
- now for finding out the HCF we need to prime factorize the given numbers:
- 792 = 2×2×2×3×3×11
- 990 = 2×3×3×5×11
- 1008 = 2×2×2×2×3×3×7
- now finding out the common factors = 2×3×3 = 18
- hence, HCF = 18
