BY EUCLID DIVISION LEMMA:–

957=609×1+348

609=348×1+261

  \huge\fbox \red{Solution:}

Firstly, the required numbers which on dividing doesn’t leave any remainder are to be found.

This is done by subtracting 6 from both the given numbers.

So, the numbers are 615 – 6 = 609 and 963 – 6 = 957.

Now, if the HCF of 609 and 957 is found, that will be the required number.

 \fbox \orange{By applying Euclid’s division lemma}

957 = 609 x 1+ 348

609 = 348 x 1 + 261

348 = 261 x 1 + 87

261 = 87 x 3 + 0.

⇒ H.C.F. = 87.
