<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>

<p>Find the GCF of 7 and 30 using the<a>division</a>method or Euclidean Algorithm Method. Follow these steps:</p>
26
<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>First, divide the larger number by the smaller number Here, divide 30 by 7 30 ÷ 7 = 4 (<a>quotient</a>), The<a>remainder</a>is calculated as 30 - (7×4) = 2 The remainder is 2, not zero, so continue the process</p>

27
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now divide the previous divisor (7) by the previous remainder (2) Divide 7 by 2 7 ÷ 2 = 3 (quotient), remainder = 7 - (2×3) = 1 The remainder is 1, not zero, so continue the process</p>
26
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now divide the previous divisor (7) by the previous remainder (2) Divide 7 by 2 7 ÷ 2 = 3 (quotient), remainder = 7 - (2×3) = 1 The remainder is 1, not zero, so continue the process</p>
28
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Divide the previous divisor (2) by the previous remainder (1) 2 ÷ 1 = 2 (quotient), remainder = 2 - (1×2) = 0 The remainder is zero, the divisor will become the GCF. The GCF of 7 and 30 is 1.</p>
