Question

What is the HCF of two consecutive number​

Answer 1

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

HCF of two consecutive numbers is always 1 . explanation : Take two consecutive numbers as 9 and 10. between these two numbers there is no common factor other than 1.

The H.C.F of two consecutive natural numbers always will be '1'.

Solution:

H.C.F of two consecutive numbers:  

Let us assume that the two consecutive numbers are 8 and 9.

We know that the Factors of 8 and 9 are

8= 1, 2, 4 and 8.......... (1)

9=1, 3 and 9.............. (2)

Therefore,  

From (1) and (2),

We can say that the H.C.F of two consecutive numbers 8 and 9 and their common factor is always 1.

The H.C.F of two consecutive natural numbers always will be '1'.

Hope this helps mate ☺️.
