Find the HCF of the pairs of numbers 240 and 6552.

Answer»

By applying Euclid’s Division lemma on 6552 and 240 we get, 

6552 = 240 x 27 + 72. 

Since remainder ≠ 0, apply division lemma on divisor 240 and remainder 72 

240 = 72 x 3+ 24. 

Since remainder ≠ 0, apply division lemma on divisor 72 and remainder 24 

72 = 24 x 3 + 0. 

Therefore, H.C.F. of 240 and 6552 is 24.
