Answer:
Step 1: Divide 455 (larger number) by 42 (smaller number).
Step 2: Since the remainder ≠ 0, we will divide the divisor of step 1 (42) by the remainder (35).
Step 3: Repeat this process until the remainder = 0.

According to the definition of Euclid's theorem,
a=b×q+r where 0≤r<b.
455=42×10+35
42=35×1+7
35=7×5+0
The HCF of 455 and 42 is 7.
