Question

If a and b are two positive integer's such that a=14b find the hcf of a and b

Answer 1

the HCF of a and b is b
since they have b as common factor.

Answer 2

"HCF of a and b is “b”

HCF:

HCF is stands for Highest Common Factor. Largest positive integer which divides two or more integers without any remainder is called highest common factor.

Given:

“a” and “b” are two positive integers; a =14b

To find:

HCF of a and b

Solution:

a = 14b

Now, we have to find the HCF of 14b and b

$14b\quad =\quad b\quad \times \quad b\quad \times \quad b\quad \times ..................\times \quad 14times$"
