Answer:
Here 335 is greater than 65
Now, consider the largest number as 'a' from the given number ie., 335 and 65 satisfy Euclid's division lemma statement a = bq + r where 0 ≤ r < b
Step 1: Since 335 > 65, we apply the division lemma to 335 and 65, to get
335 = 65 x 5 + 10
Step 2: Since the reminder 65 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 10 and 65, to get
65 = 10 x 6 + 5
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 10 and the new remainder 5, and apply the division lemma to get
10 = 5 x 2 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 5, the HCF of 335 and 65 is 5
Notice that 5 = HCF(10,5) = HCF(65,10) = HCF(335,65) .
Therefore, HCF of 335,65 using Euclid's division lemma is 5.
Hope it helps you!
