Hi,

The factors of 36 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 36.

The factors of 54 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 27, and 54.

The common factors of 36 and 54 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18

An so, the greatest common divisor or the greatest common factor of 36 and 54 is 18 (the largest number from the above set)

Regards :)
