Prime factorization of 16 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 2

Prime factorization of 24 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 3

HCF(16,24) = 2 * 2 * 2

                   = 8.

Here is the answer to your question.....

16 = 2*2*2*2
24 = 2*2*2*3

Both have 2*2*2 as common prime factors so 8 is the HCF of 16 and 24.

Hope this helps you...:)
