1.08*100 = 108.
0.36*100 = 36.
0.9*100 = 90.
@Shiv I hope this will help you out :).
0.36*100 = 36.
0.9*100 = 90.
@Shiv I hope this will help you out :).

@Shiv,
Because 0.9 = 0.90 (9/10 = 90/100) if you divided to 90/100 by 10 then you'll get 9/10. 1/2 = 0.5 = 0.50 (these all numbers are called "Half").
So we can use 90/100 in place of 9/10.

So we can use 90/100 in place of 9/10.

0.18 is correct answer.
In these path hcf = hcf (numerator)/lcm(denominator).
So we can write 1.08, 0.36, and 0.90 as 108/100 and 36/100 and 90/100 hsf (108, 36, 90) = 18 AND lcm (100, 100, 100) = 100.
As for formula 18/100 = 0.18.
So the answer is 0.18.

Answer should be 0.09 as you can't change format of number while doing fraction G.C.D.

Greatest common divisor has to be smaller than the numbers which are divided by G.C.D. And it has to be greatest, hasn't it?
So here 0.18 is greater than 0.09. So answer is 0.18.
So here 0.18 is greater than 0.09. So answer is 0.18.

The factors of 9 are: 1, 3, 9.
The factors of 36 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36.
The factors of 108 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 27, 36, 54, 108.
Then the greatest common factor is 9. So, the answer should be 0.9.
The factors of 36 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36.
The factors of 108 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 27, 36, 54, 108.
Then the greatest common factor is 9. So, the answer should be 0.9.
