Answer 2

Question :-

Highest common factor of 36 and 84 is?

Answer :-

• To calculate HCF or highest common factor of any two numbers we need to calculate prime factors of the given numbers..

prime factorization :

36 = 2×2×3×3

84 = 2×2×3×7

Now, the common prime factors here are 2 and 3.

• Multiplying the common factors gives the HCF

So HCF = 2×2×3 = 12
