This video tutorial explains how to find the Highest Common Factor (HCF) using the long division method. It covers two examples: finding the HCF of two numbers and then three numbers. The tutorial demonstrates the step-by-step process of dividing the larger number by the smaller one, using the remainder as the new divisor, and continuing until a zero remainder is achieved. The video concludes with a call to action to like and subscribe for more math content.
