Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

225=45*5

450=45*5*2

hcf= 225

Answer 2

$\huge\mathcal{\underline{\underline{Answer:-}}}$

HCF(225,450) = 225

$\huge\mathcal{\underline{\underline{Solution:-}}}$

We have,

225 = 3² × 5²

450 = 2 × 3² × 5²

HCF(225,450) = Product of common terms with lowest power

HCF(225,450) = 3² × 5²

HCF(225,450) = 9 × 25

HCF(225,450) = 225

•°• The required number or HCF is 225.
