Answer 2

Answer:

17 is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Step I:

Divide the large number by the smaller one.

Step II:

Then the remainder is treated as divisor and the divisor as dividend.

Step III:

Divide the first divisor by the first remainder.

Step IV:

Divide the second divisor by the second remainder.

Step V:

Continue this process till the remainder becomes 0.

Step VI:

The divisor which does not leave a remainder is the H.C.F. or G.C.D. of the two numbers and thus, the last divisor is the required highest common factor (H.C.F) of the given numbers.
