(i) Concept used:

To obtain the HCF of two positive integers, say c and d, with c > d,we follow the steps below:

Step 1:

Apply Euclid’s division lemma, to c and d.

So, we find whole numbers, q and r such that c = dq + r, 0 ≤ r < d.

Step 2:

If r = 0, d is the HCF of c and d. If r ≠ 0, apply the division lemma to d and r.

Step 3 :

Continue the process till the remainder is zero.

The divisor at this stage will be the required HCF.

Now, We know that,

= 225>135

Applying Euclid’s division algorithm:

(Dividend = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder)

225 = 135 ×1+90

Here remainder = 90,

So, Again Applying Euclid’s division algorithm

135 = 90×1+45

Here remainder = 45,

So, Again Applying Euclid’s division algorithm

90 = 45×2+0

Remainder = 0,

Hence,

HCF of (135, 225) = 45

(ii) Concept used:

To obtain the HCF of two positive integers, say c and d, with c > d,we follow the steps below:

Step 1:

Apply Euclid’s division lemma, to c and d.

So, we find whole numbers, q and r such that c = dq + r, 0 ≤ r < d.

Step 2 :

If r = 0, d is the HCF of c and d. If r ≠ 0, apply the division lemma to d and r.

Step 3 :

Continue the process till the remainder is zero.

The divisor at this stage will be the required HCF.

Now, We know that,

38220>196

So, Applying Euclid’s division algorithm

38220 = 196×195+0

(Dividend = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder)

Remainder = 0

Hence,

HCF of (196, 38220) = 196

(iii) Concept used:

To obtain the HCF of two positive integers, say c and d, with c > d,we follow the steps below:

Step 1:

Apply Euclid’s division lemma, to c and d. So, we find whole numbers, q and r such that c = dq + r, 0 ≤ r < d.

Step 2:

If r = 0, d is the HCF of c and d. If r ≠ 0, apply the division lemma to d and r.

Step 3:

Continue the process till the remainder is zero.

The divisor at this stage will be the required HCF.

Now, We know that,

867>255

So, Applying Euclid’s division algorithm

867 = 255×3+102

(Dividend = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder)

Remainder = 102

So, Again Applying Euclid’s division algorithm

255 = 102×2+51

Remainder = 51

So, Again Applying Euclid’s division algorithm

102 = 51×2+0

Remainder = 0

Hence,

(HCF of 867 and 255) = 51
