According to Euclid’s Division Lemma if we have two positive integers a and b, then there exist unique integers q and r which satisfies the condition
a = bq + r where 0 ≤ r < b
Consider two numbers 867 and 255, and we need to find the HCF of these numbers.
867 is grater than 255, so we will divide 867 by 225
867 = 255 × 3 + 102
Now lets divide 255 by 102
⇒ 255 = 102 × 2 + 51
Now divide 102 by 51
⇒ 102 = 51 × 2 + 0
Here reminder is zero.
∴ HCF of (867, 255) = 51
