Detailed Solution

The HCF of two consecutive numbers is 1.
The highest number that divides a group of numbers is the HCF (Highest Common Factor).
Since in the two consecutive numbers, one is even and the other is odd.
So, the only common factor between the two consecutive numbers is 1, and hence the HCF is 1.
Thus, the HCF of two consecutive numbers is 1.
