The HCF of 24 , 36 and 42 using prime factorisation.
CONCEPT TO BE IMPLEMENTED
HCF :
For the given two or more numbers HCF is the greatest number that divides each of the numbers
EVALUATION
Here the given numbers are 24 , 36 and 42
We prime factorise the given numbers
24 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3
36 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3
42 = 2 × 3 × 7
Hence the required HCF
= Highest Common Factor
= 2 × 3
= 6
