3 <p>The GCF is the largest number that can divide two or more numbers without leaving any remainder. GCF is used to share items equally, group or arrange items, and schedule events. In this topic, we will learn about the GCF of 33 and 77.</p>

4 <h2>What is the GCF of 33 and 77?</h2>

5 <p>The<a>greatest common factor</a><a>of</a>33 and 77 is 11. 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 33 and 77?</h2>

7 <p>To find the GCF of 33 and 77, a few methods are described below -</p>

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

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

34 <p>Here, divide 77 by 33 77 ÷ 33 = 2 (<a>quotient</a>),</p>

33 <p>Here, divide 77 by 33 77 ÷ 33 = 2 (<a>quotient</a>),</p>

35 <p>The<a>remainder</a>is calculated as 77 - (33×2) = 11</p>

34 <p>The<a>remainder</a>is calculated as 77 - (33×2) = 11</p>

36 <p>The remainder is 11, not zero, so continue the process</p>

37 <p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now divide the previous divisor (33) by the previous remainder (11)</p>

36 <p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now divide the previous divisor (33) by the previous remainder (11)</p>

38 <p>Divide 33 by 11 33 ÷ 11 = 3 (quotient), remainder = 33 - (11×3) = 0</p>

37 <p>Divide 33 by 11 33 ÷ 11 = 3 (quotient), remainder = 33 - (11×3) = 0</p>
