HCF stand for highest common factor also known as GCF which stands for greatest common factor
The highest number that is a factor of two (or more) other numbers.
When we find all the factors of two or more numbers, and some factors are the same ("common"), then the largest of those common factors is the highest Common Factor.
Abbreviated "GCF". Also called "Highest Common Factor"
Example: the HCF of 12 and 16 is 4, because 1, 2 and 4 are common factors of both 12 and 16, and 4 is the greatest of them.
