ur answer is 13

Explanation: Since 5 and 8 are the remainders of 70 and 125, respectively. Thus after subtracting these remainders from the numbers, we have the numbers

65 = (70 − 5), 117 = (125 − 8) which is divisible by the required number.

Now required number = H.C.F of (65,117)

117=65×1+52
65=52×1+13
52=13×4+0
H.C.F(65,117)=13

hope it's helps you

Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, 5 and 8 are the remainders of 70 and 125, respectively.

Thus, after subtracting these remainders from the numbers, we have the numbers

65 = (70-5), 117 = (125 – 8),

which is divisible by the required number.

Hence, 13 is the largest number which divides 70 and 125, leaving remainders 5 and 8. Please mark as brainliest
