1. Problem: If ‘p’ and ‘q’ are natural numbers and ‘p’ is a multiple of ‘q’, find the HCF of ‘p’ and ‘q’. 2. Since p is a multiple of q, we can write $p = kq$ for some natural number $k$. 3. The Highest Common Factor (HCF) of two numbers where one is a multiple of the other is the smaller number. 4. Therefore, the HCF of $p$ and $q$ is $q$. Final answer: (c) q
