Prime factors of 36 are: 2^2 and 3^2 Prime factors of 144 are: 2^4 and 3^2 Prime factors common to both number are 2^2 and 3^2 which when multiplied equals 36 making it the HCF
The GCF is 42.
The GCF is 18.
hcf(14, 30) = 2 lcm(14, 30) = 210 14 = 2 x 7 30 = 2 x 3 x 5 hcf = 2 lcm = 2 x 3 x 5 x 7 = 210
18 = 2 x 3 x 3 99 = 3 x 3 x 11 So hcf = 3 x 3 = 9
hcf(18, 54, 81) = 9. Using prime factorization: 18 = 2 x 3^2 54 = 2 x 3^3 81 = 3^4 hcf = 3^2 = 9

12 = 2 x 2 x 3 16 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 HCF=2 x 2 = 4 HCF = 4
factors of 8: 1, 2, 4, 8 factors of 18: 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18 HCF: 2

3 and 30.
You find the HCF of the two numbers, not their product. Example: 30 and 42 Factor them. 2 x 3 x 5 = 30 2 x 3 x 7 = 42 Select the common factors. 2 x 3 = 6, the HCF
hcf(14, 30) = 2 lcm(14, 30) = 210 14 = 2 x 7 30 = 2 x 3 x 5 hcf = 2 lcm = 2 x 3 x 5 x 7 = 210
18 = 2 x 3 x 3 99 = 3 x 3 x 11 So hcf = 3 x 3 = 9
hcf(16×27×49, 8×2725) = 8×27 = 216 Using prime factorisation: 16×27×49 = 2⁴ × 3³ × 7² 8×27×125 = 2³ × 3³ × 5³ → hcf = 2³ × 3³ = 8×27 = 216
