THANK YOU

Answer 2

Answer:

HCF = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

HCF is the product of the lowest powers of the common factors of the numbers

126 = 2 x 3 x 3 x 7 = 2 x 3² x 7

144 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 = 2⁴ x 3²

204 = 2 x 2 x 3 x 17 = 2² x 3 x 17

common factors are 2 and 3

their lowest powers are 2¹ and 3¹

so hcf = 2¹ x  3¹ = 6
