The first thing you need to do to find the HCF is split each number into its prime factors.

9 = 3x3

36 = 3x3x4

Then you identify any shared factors. In this case, both numbers have two 3s, so those are our shared factors. Multiply these together for our answer:

3x3=9

Thus the HCF of 36 and 9 is 9.
