Detailed Solution

Using Euclid’s division algorithm, the HCF of 8840 and 23120 is 680.
Given 2 numbers 8840 and 23120.
Applying Euclid’s division Lemma,
Assume a = 23120 and b =8840,
23120=8840×2+5440 Here,r=54400.  
So, Dividend = 8840 and divisor = 5440.
Applying Euclid’s division Lemma,
Assume a = 8840 and b =5440,
8840=5440×1+3400 Here,r=34000  
So, Dividend = 5440 and divisor = 3400.
Applying Euclid’s division Lemma,
Assume a = 5440 and b =3400,
5440=3400×1+2040 Here,r=20400.  
So, Dividend = 3400 and divisor = 2040.
Applying Euclid’s division Lemma,
Assume a = 3400 and b =2040,
3400=2040×1+1360 Here,r=13600  
So, Dividend = 2040 and divisor = 1360.
Applying Euclid’s division Lemma,
Assume a = 2040 and b =1360,
2040=1360×1+680 Here,r=6800  
So, Dividend = 1360 and divisor = 680.
Applying Euclid’s division Lemma,
Assume a = 1360 and b =680,
1360=680×2+0 Here,r =0   Therefore, the value is 680.
Hence, the HCF of both numbers is 680.
