Here 765 is greater than 65
Now, consider the largest number as 'a' from the given number ie., 765 and 65 satisfy Euclid's division lemma statement a = bq + r where 0 ≤ r < b
Step 1: Since 765 > 65, we apply the division lemma to 765 and 65, to get
765 = 65 x 11 + 50
Step 2: Since the reminder 65 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 50 and 65, to get
65 = 50 x 1 + 15
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 50 and the new remainder 15, and apply the division lemma to get
50 = 15 x 3 + 5
Highest common factor (HCF) of 765, 65 is 5.
HCF(765, 65) = 5
Therefore, HCF of 765,65 using Euclid's division lemma is 5.
