Question

Find the hcf using method if division by common factors.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Divide the largest number by the smallest number. Step 2: Take divisor as new dividend and remainder as the new divisor, i.e. divide the first divisor by the first remainder. Step 3: Proceed till the remainder is zero and the last divisor will be the HCF of the given numbers. Therefore, HCF of 24 and 15 is 3.
