Find the H.C.F. of by Prime factorization method .
Finding the H..C.F. by prime factorization -
Highest Common factor ( H.C.F. ) of two natural numbers is the largest common factor (or divisor) of the given numbers.
Prime Factorization of given numbers are :
Here, notice that occurs as a common prime factor at least once and for two times in the prime factors of three given numbers
.
Hence, H.C.F. of is
