9 is the answer
take factors
36 = 2 x 2 x 3 x 3
45 = 3 x 3 x 5
no take out the common factors
GCF= 3 x 3
=9

Well, you take the factors of each separately:
Factors of 36 - 2, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36
Factors of 45 - 3, 5, 9, 15, 45
So, you can see that 9 is the greatest or largest factor that goes into BOTH 36 and 45.
Hope I helped.

gcf(36, 40 5) components of 36 = 2*2*3*3 components of 40 5 = 5*3*3 observe 3 in 36 is paired with 3 in 40 5 and yet another 3 in 36 is likewise paired with 3 in 40 5 so we get 3*3=9 hence, gcf(36, 40 5) = 9

36 = 2 *2*3 *3 and 45 = 3*3*5
gcf of 36 and 45 is 3*3 = 9

it would be 9 45 divided by 9 and 36 divided by 6

see the factors of 36 are 1,2,3,4,6,9,12,18,36
and 45 are 1,3,3,5
GCF of both is 9 as it is the largest number common in the factors of 36 and 45

36 = 2 * 2 * 3 * 3
45 = 3 * 3 * 5
The GCF is 3 * 3 = 9
The LCM is 2 * 2 * 3 * 3 * 5 = 180
