Answer 1

Answer:

Find the prime factorization of 252

252 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 7

Find the prime factorization of 360

360 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 5

To find the hcf, multiply all the prime factors common to both numbers:

Therefore, GCF = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3

hCF = 36

Answer 2

Answer:

HCF (252,360)

Applying euclid's division lemma to 360 & 252

360 = 252 * 1 + 108

Since the remainder is not 0

Therefore again applying euclid's division lemma to 252 & 108

252 = 108 * 2 + 36

Since the remainder is not 0

Therefore again applying euclid's division lemma to 108 & 36

108 = 36 * 3 + 0

Since the remainder is 0

Therefore HCF = 36
