Question

What is the HCF of 100 and 50 ?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We found the factors and prime factorization of 50 and 100. The biggest common factor number is the GCF number. So the greatest common factor 50 and 100 is 50.

Answer 2

HCF of 100 and 50 = 50

Given:

Numbers 100 and 50

To find:

The HCF of 100 and 50

Solution:

HCF:

• HCF means Highest common factor

• A highest number which divides two or more numbers commonly is know as highest common factor of that given numbers  
• HCF is also know as Greatest Common Divisor(GCD).

To find HCF of 2 or more numbers write the given numbers as product prime factors and find the product of common factors

Here, given number are 100 and 50

100 = 2 × 2 × 5 × 5

50 = 2 × 5 × 5

Now list out the common factors

= 2 × 5 × 5 = 50

Therefore, HCF of 100 and 50 = 50
