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 14 and 203.</p>

4 <h2>What is the GCF of 14 and 203?</h2>

5 <p>The<a>greatest common factor</a>of 14 and 203 is 7. The largest<a>divisor</a>of two or more<a>numbers</a>is called the GCF of the numbers.</p>

6 <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>

24 <p>Find the GCF of 14 and 203 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 203 by 14 203 ÷ 14 = 14 (<a>quotient</a>), The<a>remainder</a>is calculated as 203 - (14 × 14) = 7 The remainder is 7, not zero, so continue the process</p>

25 <p><strong>Step 1:</strong>First, divide the larger number by the smaller number Here, divide 203 by 14 203 ÷ 14 = 14 (<a>quotient</a>), The<a>remainder</a>is calculated as 203 - (14 × 14) = 7 The remainder is 7, not zero, so continue the process</p>

27 <p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now divide the previous divisor (14) by the previous remainder (7) Divide 14 by 7 14 ÷ 7 = 2 (quotient), remainder = 14 - (7 × 2) = 0 The remainder is zero, so the divisor will become the GCF.</p>

26 <p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now divide the previous divisor (14) by the previous remainder (7) Divide 14 by 7 14 ÷ 7 = 2 (quotient), remainder = 14 - (7 × 2) = 0 The remainder is zero, so the divisor will become the GCF.</p>
