HCF BY DIVISION METHOD

To find the Highest
Common Factor (HCF) using the division method, repeatedly divide the
larger number by the smaller number, and take the remainder as the new
divisor. This process continues until the remainder is zero. The last
non-zero divisor is the HCF.
Steps:
1. Divide the
larger number by the smaller number.
2. If there's a
remainder, make it the new divisor and divide the previous divisor (now the
dividend).
3. Repeat step 2
until the remainder is zero.
4. The divisor at the step where the remainder is zero is the HCF.
Example:
1. Find the HCF of 14 and 35 by division method
2. Find the HCF of 88 and 56 by division method
HCF of 88 and 56 = 8
3.Find the HCF of 12, 75 and 45 by division method
