Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
160 and 75
To find :
H. C. F by using Euclid's Division Algorithm =?
Step-by-step explanation :
Euclid's division lemma :
Let a and b be any two positive Integers .
Then there exist two unique whole numbers q and r such that
a = bq + r ,
0 ≤ r <b
Now ,
Start with a larger integer , that is 160,
Applying the Euclid's division lemma to 160 and 75, we get
160 = 75 × 2 + 10
Since the remainder 10 ≠ 0, we apply the Euclid's division lemma to divisor 75 and remainder 10 to get
75 = 10 × 7 + 5
We consider the new divisor 10 and remainder 5 and apply the division lemma to get
10 = 5 × 2 + 0
Now, the remainder at this stage is 0.
So, the divisor at this stage, ie, 5 is the HCF of 160 and 75
Answer:
5 is the hcf of 75 and 160
