The GCF is 7.
------------------------------
The prime factorisation method:
14 = 2 × 7
21 = 3 × 7
hcf = 7 as it is the only common prime between the two factorisations.
--------------------------------------------
Euclid's method:
1) 14 ÷ 21 → remainder 14
2) first number becomes 21
3) second number becomes 14
4) 14 is not 0, so repeat form step 1
1) 21 ÷ 14 → remainder 7
2) first number becomes 14
3) second number becomes 7
4) 7 is not 0, so repeat form step 1
1) 14 ÷ 7 → remainder 0
2) first number becomes 7
3) second number becomes 0
4) 0 is 0, so continue to step 5
5) hcf is first number which is now 7
→ hcf(14, 21) = 7.
