HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 4168, 6533 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 4168, 6533 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 4168, 6533 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 4168, 6533 is 1.
HCF(4168, 6533) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 4168, 6533 is 1.
Step 1: Since 6533 > 4168, we apply the division lemma to 6533 and 4168, to get
6533 = 4168 x 1 + 2365
Step 2: Since the reminder 4168 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 2365 and 4168, to get
4168 = 2365 x 1 + 1803
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 2365 and the new remainder 1803, and apply the division lemma to get
2365 = 1803 x 1 + 562
We consider the new divisor 1803 and the new remainder 562,and apply the division lemma to get
1803 = 562 x 3 + 117
We consider the new divisor 562 and the new remainder 117,and apply the division lemma to get
562 = 117 x 4 + 94
We consider the new divisor 117 and the new remainder 94,and apply the division lemma to get
117 = 94 x 1 + 23
We consider the new divisor 94 and the new remainder 23,and apply the division lemma to get
94 = 23 x 4 + 2
We consider the new divisor 23 and the new remainder 2,and apply the division lemma to get
23 = 2 x 11 + 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 4168 and 6533 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(23,2) = HCF(94,23) = HCF(117,94) = HCF(562,117) = HCF(1803,562) = HCF(2365,1803) = HCF(4168,2365) = HCF(6533,4168) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
