Best Answer

To find the HCF of 8 and 12, first write them as the product of their prime factors:

8 = 2x2x2

12 = 2x2x3

The next step is to identify any common prime factors. In this example, both numbers have two 2s as prime factors. Multiply these together and you get 4. Thus the HCF of 8 and 12 is 4.
