The correct Answer is:
To find the HCF (Highest Common Factor) of the numbers 750, 6300, and 18900 using the continuous division method, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Numbers**: We have three numbers: 750, 6300, and 18900. 2. **Find HCF of the First Two Numbers**: Start by finding the HCF of the first two numbers, which are 6300 and 18900. - Divide 18900 by 6300. - \( 18900 \div 6300 = 3 \) (since \( 6300 \times 3 = 18900 \)) - Remainder = 0. - Since the remainder is 0, the HCF of 6300 and 18900 is 6300. 3. **Use the Result to Find HCF with the Third Number**: Now, we need to find the HCF of 6300 (the result from the previous step) and 750. - Divide 6300 by 750. - \( 6300 \div 750 = 8 \) (since \( 750 \times 8 = 6000 \)) - Remainder = \( 6300 - 6000 = 300 \). 4. **Continue the Division**: Now, take the divisor (750) and the remainder (300) and repeat the process. - Divide 750 by 300. - \( 750 \div 300 = 2 \) (since \( 300 \times 2 = 600 \)) - Remainder = \( 750 - 600 = 150 \). 5. **Repeat Again**: Now, take 300 and 150. - Divide 300 by 150. - \( 300 \div 150 = 2 \) (since \( 150 \times 2 = 300 \)) - Remainder = \( 300 - 300 = 0 \). 6. **Final Result**: Since the last remainder is 0, the HCF is the last non-zero remainder, which is 150. ### Conclusion: The HCF of 750, 6300, and 18900 is **150**. ---
