The HCF of 95 and 152, is

Question:

The HCF of 95 and 152, is

(a) 57

(b) 1

(c) 19

(d) 38

Solution:

Using the factor tree for 95, we have:

Using the factor tree for 152, we have:

Therefore,

$95=5 \times 19$

$152=2^{3} \times 19$

$\operatorname{HCF}(95,152)=19$

Hence the correct choice is (c).
