(i) 210, 55

Step 1. Given integers are 210 and 55 

such as 210 > 55

by Euclid division lemma

210 = 55 × 3 + 45 …(i)

Step 2. Since remainder 45 ≠ 0. 

so for divisior 55 and remainder 45

by Euclid division lemma

55 = 45 × 1 + 10 …(ii)

Remainder ≠ 0

Step 3. For divisior 45 and remainder 10 

by Euclid division lemma

45 = 10 × 4 + 5 …(iii)

remainder ≠ 0

Step 4. For new divisior 10 and remainder 5 by

Euclid division lemma

10 = 5 × 2 + 0 …(iv)

Hence, remainder = 0

So, HCF of 210, 55 is 5.

(ii) 420, 130

Step 1. For given integer 420 and 130.

By Euclid division lemma

420 = 130 × 3 + 30 …(i)

Step 2. Here remainder is not zero.

So for divisior 130 and remainder 30

By Euclid division lemma

130 = 30 × 4 + 10 …(ii)

Step 3. Here remainder is not zero.

So for divisior 30 and remiander 10

By Euclid division lemma

30 = 10 × 3 + 0 …(iii)

Here, remainder is zero.

Hence, HCF of 420 and 130 is 10.

(iii) 75, 243

Step 1. For given integer 75 and 243

243 > 75

By Euclid division lemma

243 = 75 × 3 + 18 …(i)

Step 2. Here remainder ≠ 0

So, using Euclid division lemma 

for divisior 75 and remainder 18.

75 = 18 × 4 + 3 …(ii)

Step 3. Here remainder ≠ 0 

for divisior 18 and remainder 3

18 = 3 × 6 + 0 …(iii)

Since, remainder = 0

Hence, H.C.F. of 75 and 243 = 3

(iv) 135, 225

Step 1. For given integer 135 and 225
225 > 135

By Euclid division lemma

225 = 135 × 1 + 90

Step 2. Here remainder is not zero.

So, for divisior 135 and remainder 90.

135 = 90 × 1 + 45

Step 3. Here remainder is not zero. 

So for divisor 18 and remainder 3.

90 = 45 × 2 + 0

remainder = 0

Hence HCF of 135 and 225 = 45

(v) 196, 38220

Step 1. For a given integer 196 and 38220
38220 > 196

Step 2. Using Euclid division lemma

38220 = 196 × 195 + 0

Step 3. Since remainder = 0 and divisor = 196

Hence, HCF of 196 and 38220 = 196

(vi) 867, 255.

Step 1. For a given integer 867 and 255

867 > 255

Step 2. Using Euclid division lemma

867 = 255 × 3 + 102

Here, remainder ≠ 0

Divisor = 255, and remainder = 102

Step 3. Again, for divisor 255 

and remainder 102 using Euclid Lemma.

255 = 102 × 2 + 51

Step 4. Here, remainder = 51 ≠ 0

again by using Euclid Divisor Lamma, 

for divisor 102 and remainder 51.

Step 5. Here, the remainder is zero.

Hence, HCF (687, 255) = 51
