867 > 225. Applying Euclid's Division algorithm we get

867=255\times 3+102

since remainder \neq 0 we apply the algorithm again.

since 255 > 102

255=102\times 2+51

since remainder \neq 0 we apply the algorithm again.

since 102 > 51

102=51\times 2+0

since remainder = 0 we conclude the HCF of  867 and 255 is 51.
