Answer:
We can find the HCF using the Euclid's Division Lemma.
To find HCF of 132 and 36, follow the upcoming steps:
=> 132 = 36 × 3 + 24
=> 36 = 24 × 1 + 12
=> 24 = 12 × 2 + 0
Hence 12 is the last divisor which made our answer arrive at zero.
Hence 12 is the HCF of 132 and 36.

Hey Mate ⭐⭐⭐
Here's ur answer ⤵⤵⤵
Step 1. Divide the larger number by the smaller one:
132 ÷ 36 = 3 + 24;
Step 2. Divide the smaller number by the above operation's remainder:
36 ÷ 24 = 1 + 12;
Step 3. Divide the remainder from the step 1 by the remainder from the step 2:
24 ÷ 12 = 2 + 0;
At this step, the remainder is zero, so we stop:
12 is the number we were looking for, the last remainder that is not zero.
Answer=> 12
Hope it helps you! ヅ
