HCF of two or more numbers is the biggest common factor which divides all the said numbers exactly.
Now by applying Euclid’s Division lemma on 240 and 6552 we get
6552 = 240 × 27 + 72.
Since remainder ≠ 0, apply division lemma on divisor 240 and remainder 72
240 = 72 × 3 + 24.
Since remainder ≠ 0, apply division lemma on divisor 72 and remainder 24
72 = 24 × 3 + 0.
Here we get the remainder = 0
Hence, HCF of 6552 and 240 is 24.
