We need to find the number which divides 332 and 447 leaving remainder 6.
So, 332-2=330
447-2=445
The required number= HCF of 330 and 445
By Euclid's division lemma,
445=330×1+115
330=115×2+100
115=100×1+15
100=15×6+10
15=10×1+5
10=5×2+0
HCF=5
Hence, answer=5.

Answer:
The answer is 5
When a no: is divides 332 and 447 , it leaves a remainder 2 in both the case .
to find the no: , follow these steps :-
1) Subtract the remainders from the numbers :-
332 - 2 = 330
447 - 2 = 445
2) HCF of 330 and 445 = greatest positive integer which divides 332 and 447 leaving remainder 2 in each case
330 = 2 . 3 . 5 . 11
445 = 5 . 89
hcf = 5
5 is the greatest positive integer which divides 332 and 447 leaving remainder 2 in each case
