Question

Use euclids algorithm and find HCF of 156 , 208 , 260

Answer 1

Use euclids algorithm and find HCF of 156 , 208 , 260

Answer

=> HCF of 156 and 208

P.F. of 156 = 2×2×3×13

P.F. of 208 = 2×2×2×2×13

Therefore, H.C.F. of 156 and 208 = 2×2×13 = 52

=> Now , H.C.F. of 52 and 260

P.F. of 52 = 2×2×13

P.F. of 260 = 2×2×5×13

H.C.F. = 2×2×13 = 52

Answer 2

so the HCF of 156 , 208 , & 260 is 52
