Define HOE of two positive integers and find the HCF of the following pair of numbers:
56 and 88
उत्तर
By applying Euclid’s division lemma
88 = 56 × 1 + 32
Since remainder ≠ 0, apply division lemma on divisor of 56 and remainder 32.
56 = 32 × 1 + 24
Since remainder ≠ 0, apply division lemma on divisor of 32 and remainder 24.
32 = 24 × 1 + 8
Since remainder ≠ 0, apply division lemma on divisor of 24 and remainder 8.
24 = 8 × 3 + 0
∴ HCF of 56 and 88 is = 8.
