Question

find the hcf by ling divison method 54,114,124​

Answer 1

HCF stands for highest common factor. It is also known as greatest common divisor or GCD. Let us consider a1 and a2 as the two natural numbers. If these two natural numbers a1 and a2 are divisible by exactly the same number which is n then ‘n’ is called the common factor ofa1 and a2. The highest number of all these common factors ofa1 and a2 is called as the HCF or GCD. For example, the highest common factor of 18 and 24 is 6.
