What is the Greatest Common Divisor of 33 and 36?

Answer

GCF (HCF) of 33 and 36 is

3

Common factors: 1, 3

3 divides both: 33 ÷ 3 = 11, 36 ÷ 3 = 12 — and 11 and 12 share no factor but 1, so no larger number divides both.

33 = 3 × 11

36 = 2² × 3²

Prime	33	36	Lowest power
2	—	2²	—
3	3	3²	3
11	11	—	—

— = power 0: the prime is not a factor of this number, so it cannot be in the GCF.

GCF = 3
