Question

The HCF of 24,32and48 is​

Answer 1

common factors of 24 are 2,3,6,8,12,24

common factors of 32 are 2,4,8,16,32

common factors of 48 are 2,3,4,6,8,12,16,48

The common factors for 24,32,48 are 2 and 8

The highest number is 8

Therefore HCF of 24,32 and 48 is 8

Answer 2

Answer:

The HCF of the given numbers is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The numbers are 24, 32, and 48.

We have to find the HCF of the above numbers.

• As we know that the greatest common divisor of two or more integers, which are not all zero, is the largest positive integer that divides each of the integers.

We are solving in the following way:

We have,

The numbers are 24, 32, and 48.  

First, we will find the factors of the above numbers.

The factors of 24 are: $1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24$

The factors of 32 are: $1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32$

The factors of 48 are: $1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48$

From the above, we can see that 8 is the largest positive integer that divides each of the integers.

Then the greatest common factor is 8.

In this problem, we are assuming we have to find the HCF of the given numbers.
