Step-by-step explanation:

The largest number that divides 546 and 764 leaving remainders 6 and 8 respectively is given by

highest common factor of 546 – 6 = 540 and 764 – 8 = 756.

The prime factorization of  540 and 756 are

540 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 5 = 2² × 3³ × 5

and

756 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 7 = 2² × 3³ × 7

∴ HCF = 2² × 3³ = 108  

Hence, the largest number is 108.
