Question

Find hcf using division algorithm 867and 255

Answer 1

`51`

Explanation:

`a=bq+r`

Where
`a > b`

`867=255 * 3+102`

`255=102 * 2+51`

`102=51 * 2+0`

Hcf of 867,255 is 51

Answer 2

By using EDL

a=bq+r

where a is > b

so a =867 and b=255

867=255×3+102

here r≠0 so a=255 and b=102

255=102×2+51

here r≠0 so a=102 and b=51

102=51×2+0

here r=0

so, Hcf of (867,255) is =51

Hope it works out!!
