Question

Using the common factor method, find the H.C.F. of
(i) 16 and 35

Answer 1

(i) Factor of a number: The number by which the given number can be divided completely.
Factors of $16=1,2,4,8,16$
Factors of $35=3,5,7,35$
$\therefore$ Common factors between $16$ and $35=1$
Hence, H.C.F. of 16 and 35 is 1.
