0.9 value is greater than 0.18 and it is a common divisor for 1.08, 0.36 and 0.9.
So, the answer should be 0.9 right?

GCD (Greatest Common Divisor) is just another term for HCF.
Just turn the given numbers 1.08, 0.36, 0.9 into 108/100, 36/100, 90/100
And find the HCF of 108, 36, 90 which is equal to 18.
And divide this answer 18 by 100,
We get 0.18.

Firstly, do subtraction from the first two numbers (108 - 36 = 72) .
Next, do subtraction of next two numbers(36-90=54)"- sign have no value".
next, subtract first and last numbers(108-90).
Then, subtrac the first Answers(72 - 52 = 18).
So, the answer is 18.

@All.
Here we want to know if 0.9 is the HCF or 0.18 is.
I think both the numbers are found to be factors of 0.9, 1.08 and 0.36. But since we need the HCF (Highest common factor), the highest value among them should be 0.9 between 0.9 and 0.18.
Hence I think 0.9 is the highest common factor of 0.9, 1.08 and 0.36.
Correct me if wrong, please.

Convert them into fractions:
i.e:108/100,36/100,90/100.
HCF of fractions: HCF of numerator/LCM of denominator;
HCF(108,36,90)/LCM(100,100,100),
= 18/100,
= 0.18.
Hope this is helpful.

Multiplay theses all numbers.
(1.80, 0.36,0.9)by 100. It Will reduce your risk!
So we got 108 , 36 , 90.
Then find the GCD (HCF).
HCF of these three = 18.
Divide 18 by 100 (at first we multiplied by 100).
18÷100= 0.18.
Hope you understood.
