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 schedule events. In this topic, we will learn about the GCF of 14 and 10.</p>

4 <h2>What is the GCF of 14 and 10?</h2>

5 <p>The<a>greatest common factor</a><a>of</a>14 and 10 is 2. The largest<a>divisor</a>of two or more<a>numbers</a>is called the GCF of the numbers. 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>

6 <h2>How to find the GCF of 14 and 10?</h2>

7 <p>To find the GCF of 14 and 10, a few methods are described below -</p>

8 <ul><li>Listing Factors</li>

9 <li>Prime Factorization</li>

10 <li>Long Division Method / by Euclidean Algorithm</li>

11 </ul><h2>GCF of 14 and 10 by Using Listing of Factors</h2>

12 <p>Steps to find the GCF of 14 and 10 using the listing of<a>factors</a></p>

13 <p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Firstly, list the factors of each number</p>

14 <p>Factors of 14 = 1, 2, 7, 14.</p>

15 <p>Factors of 10 = 1, 2, 5, 10.</p>

16 <p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now, identify the<a>common factors</a>of them Common factors of 14 and 10: 1, 2.</p>

17 <p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Choose the largest factor</p>

33 <p><strong>Step 1:</strong>First, divide the larger number by the smaller number</p>

32 <p><strong>Step 1:</strong>First, divide the larger number by the smaller number</p>

34 <p>Here, divide 14 by 10 14 ÷ 10 = 1 (<a>quotient</a>)</p>

33 <p>Here, divide 14 by 10 14 ÷ 10 = 1 (<a>quotient</a>)</p>

35 <p>The<a>remainder</a>is calculated as 14 - (10×1) = 4</p>

34 <p>The<a>remainder</a>is calculated as 14 - (10×1) = 4</p>

36 <p>The remainder is 4, not zero, so continue the process</p>

35 <p>The remainder is 4, not zero, so continue the process</p>

37 <p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now divide the previous divisor (10) by the previous remainder (4)</p>

36 <p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now divide the previous divisor (10) by the previous remainder (4)</p>

38 <p>Divide 10 by 4 10 ÷ 4 = 2 (quotient), remainder = 10 - (4×2) = 2</p>

37 <p>Divide 10 by 4 10 ÷ 4 = 2 (quotient), remainder = 10 - (4×2) = 2</p>

39 <p>The remainder is not zero, so continue</p>

40 <p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Divide the previous divisor (4) by the previous remainder (2)</p>

39 <p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Divide the previous divisor (4) by the previous remainder (2)</p>

41 <p>Divide 4 by 2 4 ÷ 2 = 2 (quotient), remainder = 4 - (2×2) = 0</p>

40 <p>Divide 4 by 2 4 ÷ 2 = 2 (quotient), remainder = 4 - (2×2) = 0</p>

42 <p>The remainder is zero, the divisor will become the GCF.</p>
