In the board exams, when we find the HCF in 2 numbers, do we have to do the devision or just directly write the statements like this (225= 135 × 1 + 9) ? Will they cut marks if you don't do devision ?

For questions that asks you to find the HCF alone please show the division and write the statement. If it is a large question including finding HCF then the statement alone is enough. Though it is better to show the division, so that it leaves a good impression on the one correcting your papper.
