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 39 and 65.</p>

4 <h2>What is the GCF of 39 and 65?</h2>

5 <p>The<a>greatest common factor</a>of 39 and 65 is 13. The largest<a>divisor</a>of two or more<a>numbers</a>is called the GCF of the number. 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>

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

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

35 <p>Here, divide 65 by 39 65 ÷ 39 = 1 (<a>quotient</a>), The<a>remainder</a>is calculated as 65 - (39×1) = 26</p>

34 <p>Here, divide 65 by 39 65 ÷ 39 = 1 (<a>quotient</a>), The<a>remainder</a>is calculated as 65 - (39×1) = 26</p>

36 <p>The remainder is 26, not zero, so continue the process</p>

35 <p>The remainder is 26, not zero, so continue the process</p>

37 <p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now divide the previous divisor (39) by the previous remainder (26)</p>

36 <p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now divide the previous divisor (39) by the previous remainder (26)</p>

38 <p>Divide 39 by 26 39 ÷ 26 = 1 (quotient), remainder = 39 - (26×1) = 13</p>

37 <p>Divide 39 by 26 39 ÷ 26 = 1 (quotient), remainder = 39 - (26×1) = 13</p>

39 <p>The remainder is 13, not zero, so continue the process</p>

38 <p>The remainder is 13, not zero, so continue the process</p>

40 <p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now divide the previous divisor (26) by the previous remainder (13)</p>

39 <p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now divide the previous divisor (26) by the previous remainder (13)</p>

41 <p>Divide 26 by 13 26 ÷ 13 = 2 (quotient), remainder = 26 - (13×2) = 0</p>

40 <p>Divide 26 by 13 26 ÷ 13 = 2 (quotient), remainder = 26 - (13×2) = 0</p>

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