HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 225, 758, 482, 622 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 225, 758, 482, 622 is 1 the largest number which exactly divides all the numbers i.e. where the remainder is zero. Let us get into the working of this example.
Consider we have numbers 225, 758, 482, 622 and we need to find the HCF of these numbers. To do so, we need to choose the largest integer first and then as per Euclid's Division Lemma a = bq + r where 0 ≤ r ≤ b
Highest common factor (HCF) of 225, 758, 482, 622 is 1.
HCF(225, 758, 482, 622) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 225, 758, 482, 622 is 1.
Step 1: Since 758 > 225, we apply the division lemma to 758 and 225, to get
758 = 225 x 3 + 83
Step 2: Since the reminder 225 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 83 and 225, to get
225 = 83 x 2 + 59
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 83 and the new remainder 59, and apply the division lemma to get
83 = 59 x 1 + 24
We consider the new divisor 59 and the new remainder 24,and apply the division lemma to get
59 = 24 x 2 + 11
We consider the new divisor 24 and the new remainder 11,and apply the division lemma to get
24 = 11 x 2 + 2
We consider the new divisor 11 and the new remainder 2,and apply the division lemma to get
11 = 2 x 5 + 1
We consider the new divisor 2 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
2 = 1 x 2 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 225 and 758 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(11,2) = HCF(24,11) = HCF(59,24) = HCF(83,59) = HCF(225,83) = HCF(758,225) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 482 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 482 and 1, to get
482 = 1 x 482 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 482 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(482,1) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 622 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 622 and 1, to get
622 = 1 x 622 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 622 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(622,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
