We have to find Greatest Factor

In this case , we have to find HCF with remainder ( no mention of remainder in question)

Step

Find the Differences of numbersGet the HCF ( that differences)

We have here 43 ,91 and 183

So differences are

183 - 91 = 92,

183 - 43 = 140,

91 - 43 = 48.

Now

HCF (48, 92 and 140)

As

48 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3,

92 = 2 x 2 x 23,

140 = 2 x 2 x 5 x 7

HCF = 2 x 2 = 4.

And 4 is the required number.

Hope it will help u....
