You haven't given the number of letters in the answer. I don't do this crossword but I think this was answered as Lowest Common Factor- or something similar!

It is the lowest, but it's also the highest common factor that will divide into both figures.
so how many letters do you need?

Great! The number of letters is 7,6,6
Common factor fits so could if be highest? As first letter could be either H or e

It would have been good if you'd given the letter count earlier! I didn't pay much attention to the earlier thread,I'm a Cryptic person myself.

Letters 7,6,6
Common factor fits
Highest could fit or a 7 letter word beginning with e

Did you see Elle's post earlier in this thread? 'Highest' works/fits the clue.

I should think it is "highest common factor"
