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
