3 <p>The GCF is the largest number that can divide two or more numbers without leaving any remainder. GCF is used to share the items equally, to group or arrange items, and to schedule events. In this topic, we will learn about the GCF of 24 and 33.</p>

4 <h2>What is the GCF of 24 and 33?</h2>

5 <p>The<a>greatest common factor</a><a>of</a>24 and 33 is 3. The largest<a>divisor</a>of two or more<a>numbers</a>is called the GCF of the numbers.</p>

6 <p>If two numbers are co-prime, they have no common factors other than 1, so their GCF is 1. The GCF of two numbers cannot be negative because divisors are always positive.</p>

24 <p>Find the GCF of 24 and 33 using the<a>division</a>method or Euclidean Algorithm Method. Follow these steps:</p>

23 <p>Find the GCF of 24 and 33 using the<a>division</a>method or Euclidean Algorithm Method. Follow these steps:</p>

25 <p><strong>Step 1:</strong>First, divide the larger number by the smaller number Here, divide 33 by 24 33 ÷ 24 = 1 (<a>quotient</a>), The<a>remainder</a>is calculated as 33 - (24×1) = 9 The remainder is 9, not zero, so continue the process</p>

24 <p><strong>Step 1:</strong>First, divide the larger number by the smaller number Here, divide 33 by 24 33 ÷ 24 = 1 (<a>quotient</a>), The<a>remainder</a>is calculated as 33 - (24×1) = 9 The remainder is 9, not zero, so continue the process</p>

26 <p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now divide the previous divisor (24) by the previous remainder (9) Divide 24 by 9 24 ÷ 9 = 2 (quotient), remainder = 24 - (9×2) = 6</p>

25 <p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now divide the previous divisor (24) by the previous remainder (9) Divide 24 by 9 24 ÷ 9 = 2 (quotient), remainder = 24 - (9×2) = 6</p>

27 <p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now divide the previous divisor (9) by the previous remainder (6) Divide 9 by 6 9 ÷ 6 = 1 (quotient), remainder = 9 - (6×1) = 3</p>

26 <p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now divide the previous divisor (9) by the previous remainder (6) Divide 9 by 6 9 ÷ 6 = 1 (quotient), remainder = 9 - (6×1) = 3</p>

28 <p><strong>Step 4:</strong>Now divide the previous divisor (6) by the previous remainder (3) Divide 6 by 3 6 ÷ 3 = 2 (quotient), remainder = 6 - (3×2) = 0</p>

27 <p><strong>Step 4:</strong>Now divide the previous divisor (6) by the previous remainder (3) Divide 6 by 3 6 ÷ 3 = 2 (quotient), remainder = 6 - (3×2) = 0</p>

29 <p>The remainder is zero, the divisor will become the GCF. The GCF of 24 and 33 is 3.</p>

28 <p>The remainder is zero, the divisor will become the GCF. The GCF of 24 and 33 is 3.</p>
