<p>The<a>greatest common factor</a><a>of</a>18 and 35 is 1. 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>

<p>Find the GCF of 18 and 35 using the<a>division</a>method or Euclidean Algorithm Method. Follow these steps:</p>
32
<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>First, divide the larger number by the smaller number Here, divide 35 by 18 35 ÷ 18 = 1 (<a>quotient</a>), The<a>remainder</a>is calculated as 35 - (18×1) = 17 The remainder is 17, not zero, so continue the process</p>

33
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now divide the previous divisor (18) by the previous remainder (17) Divide 18 by 17 18 ÷ 17 = 1 (quotient), remainder = 18 - (17×1) = 1 The remainder is 1, not zero, so continue the process</p>
32
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now divide the previous divisor (18) by the previous remainder (17) Divide 18 by 17 18 ÷ 17 = 1 (quotient), remainder = 18 - (17×1) = 1 The remainder is 1, not zero, so continue the process</p>
34
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now divide the previous divisor (17) by the previous remainder (1) 17 ÷ 1 = 17 (quotient), remainder = 17 - (1×17) = 0 The remainder is zero, the divisor will become the GCF. The GCF of 18 and 35 is 1.</p>
