Answer 1

Answer:

2x3^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

The greatest common divisor is:

$2\times 3^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

The greatest common divisor (gcd) of two or more integers, which are not all zero, is the largest positive integer that divides each of the integers.

162=2×81

     =$2\times 3^4$

378=$2\times 3^3\times 7$

and 414=$2\times 3^2\times 23$

Hence,

The greatest common divisor is:

$2\times 3^2$
