any question is given that to find out the largest number which divides 70 and 125 which leaves remainder 5 and 8 respectively

so firstly we should subtract the number with its reminder therefore
=70-5
=65
do the same with the number 125
=125-8
=117
then find out the HCF of both the numbers, 65and 117

for fast calculation use euclid's division Lemma
a=bq+r
117=65(1)+52
65=52(1)+13
52=13(4)+0
as the reminder is zero we can understand that the HCF of the two numbers is 13 therefore the largest number which divides 70 and 125 leaving remainders 5 and 8 respectively is 13

please make me brainiest
