By using Euclid's division algorithm (a = b × q + r)
Step 1 :
48) 72 ( 1
48
-----------
24
72 = 42 × 1 + 24
Step 2 : As remainder is 24 which is not zero. so, now will take 24 as divisor and 42 as dividend.
24) 42 ( 1
24
---------
1 8
42 = 24 × 1 + 18
Step 3 : As remainder 18 which is not zero. Hence, now will take 18 as divisor and 24 as dividend.
18 ) 24 ( 1
18
------------
6
24 = 18 × 1 + 6
Step 4 : Now ,we considthe divisor 18 as dividend and the remainder 6 as divisor.
6) 18 ( 3
18
-----------
0
Finally , We get a remainder as 0.
Hence, H.C.F of ( 48, 72 ) is 6.
