Answer:

Pls mark me as brainliest

the H. C. F. of 16, 42 and 72 is 2.

H. C. F. of 16 and 42.

42 = 16 * 2 + 10.

16 = 10 * 1 + 6.

10 = 6 * 1 + 4.

6 = 4 * 1 + 2.

4 = 2 * 2 + 0.

Since, the remainder becomes 0,

H. C. F. is 2.

➡️ Now, H. C. F. of 2 and 72

72 = 2 * 36 + 0.

Since, the remainder becomes 0,

H. C. F. is 2.
