$\huge\underline{ \mathbb\red{⭐A} \green{n} \mathbb\blue{S} \purple{w} \mathbb \orange{E} \pink{r}} \:$

To find the largest number which divides 615 and 963 leaving remainder 6 in each case i.e. HCF.

Consider HCF be x.

In order to make 615 and 963 completely divisible by x, we need to deduct the remainder 6 from both the cases.

609 = 3 x 3 x 29

957= 3 x 11 x 29

⇒ x = 3 x 29 = 87

∴ largest number which divides 615 and 963 leaving remainder 6 in each case is 87.
