If two numbers give the same remainder when divided by some other number, then their difference must give a remainder of zero when divided by that number:
differences are :
182 - 90 = 92,
182 - 42 = 140,
90 - 42 = 48.
HCF of the differences
HCF of 48 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3,
HCF of 92 = 2 × 2 × 23,
HCF of 140 = 2 × 2 × 5 × 7
HCF = 2 × 2 = 4 (Answer)
