30 <p><strong>Step 1:</strong>First, divide the larger number by the smaller number Here, divide 63 by 49 63 ÷ 49 = 1 (<a>quotient</a>),</p>
29 <p><strong>Step 1:</strong>First, divide the larger number by the smaller number Here, divide 63 by 49 63 ÷ 49 = 1 (<a>quotient</a>),</p>
31 <p>The<a>remainder</a>is calculated as 63 - (49×1) = 14 The remainder is 14, not zero, so continue the process</p>
30 <p>The<a>remainder</a>is calculated as 63 - (49×1) = 14 The remainder is 14, not zero, so continue the process</p>
32 <p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now divide the previous divisor (49) by the previous remainder (14) Divide 49 by 14 49 ÷ 14 = 3 (quotient), remainder = 49 - (14×3) = 7 The remainder is 7, not zero, so continue the process</p>
31 <p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now divide the previous divisor (49) by the previous remainder (14) Divide 49 by 14 49 ÷ 14 = 3 (quotient), remainder = 49 - (14×3) = 7 The remainder is 7, not zero, so continue the process</p>
33 <p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Divide 14 by 7 14 ÷ 7 = 2 (quotient), remainder = 14 - (7×2) = 0 The remainder is zero, the divisor will become the GCF. The GCF of 63 and 49 is 7.</p>
32 <p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Divide 14 by 7 14 ÷ 7 = 2 (quotient), remainder = 14 - (7×2) = 0 The remainder is zero, the divisor will become the GCF. The GCF of 63 and 49 is 7.</p>
