867>225
Now, 867=225*3+207
225=207*1+18
207=18*11+9
18=9*2
Hence, HCF=9

As we know, 867 is greater than 225. Let us apply now Euclid’s division algorithm on 867, to get,
867 = 225 × 3 + 192
225 = 192 × 1 + 33
192 = 33 × 5 + 27
33 = 27 × 1 + 6
27 = 6 × 4 + 3
6 = 3 × 2 + 0
- Hence, the HCF of 867 and 225 is 3.
