Question

HCF of 1500 and 625​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1. Divide the larger number by the smaller one:

1,500 ÷ 625 = 2 + 250;

Step 2. Divide the smaller number by the above operation's remainder:

625 ÷ 250 = 2 + 125;

Step 3. Divide the remainder from the step 1 by the remainder from the step 2:

250 ÷ 125 = 2 + 0;

At this step, the remainder is zero, so we stop:

125 is the number we were looking for, the last remainder that is not zero.

This is the greatest common factor (divisor).

Greatest (highest) common factor (divisor):

gcf, hcf, gcd (625; 1,500) = 125

gcf, hcf, gcd (625; 1,500) = 125 = 53
