how we can find HCF of a number?
Solution: Step 1: Divide the largest number by the smallest number. Step 2: Take divisor as new dividend and remainder as the new divisor, i.e. divide the first divisor by the first remainder. Step 3: Proceed till the remainder is zero and the last divisor will be the HCF of the given numbers.
The highest common factor is found by multiplying all the factors which appear in both lists: So the HCF of 60 and 72 is 2 × 2 × 3 which is 12.
