Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The numbers are 18 and 60.

We have to find the HCF of the above numbers.

  • As we know, the HCF (Highest Common Factor) of two or more numbers is the highest number among all the common factors of the given numbers.
  • HCF is also known as the greatest common factor.

We are solving in the following way:

We have,

The numbers are 18 and 60.

First, we will find the factors of the above numbers.

 The factors of 18 are: 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18

The factors of 60 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 30, 60
