Answer :
The HCF of each of the pair of numbers are 2, 6 and 4
Finding the HCF of each of the pair of numbers
From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:
- (1) 2 and 36
- (2) 42 and 24
- (3) 8 and 12
The HCF of each of the pair of numbers is calculated as follows
Pair 1
2 = 2
36 = 2 * 2 * 3 * 3
The highest common factor above is
HCF = 2
Pair 2
42 = 2 * 3 * 7
24 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 3
The highest common factor above is
HCF = 2 * 3
Evaluate
HCF = 6
Pair 3
8 = 2 * 2 * 2
12 = 2 * 2 * 3
The highest common factor above is
HCF = 2 * 2
Evaluate
HCF = 4
Hence, the HCF of each of the pair of numbers are 2, 6 and 4
