Answer 2

Hello friend..

Hope this will help u..

HERE IS UR ANSWER

EXPLAINATION

HCF(Highest common factor):-

(Also called as GCD) HCF of two

numbers is the number which comletely divides (with 0 remainder) both the numbers.

For example,HCF of 14Band 21 is 7,HCF (54,27) is 27.

Givena=x 3y 2,b=xy 3

It can be observed that xy2

is a common factor of both a and b.

Hence HCF(a,b)=xy 2.
