HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 4667, 5677 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 4667, 5677 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 4667, 5677 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 4667, 5677 is 1.
HCF(4667, 5677) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 4667, 5677 is 1.
Step 1: Since 5677 > 4667, we apply the division lemma to 5677 and 4667, to get
5677 = 4667 x 1 + 1010
Step 2: Since the reminder 4667 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 1010 and 4667, to get
4667 = 1010 x 4 + 627
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 1010 and the new remainder 627, and apply the division lemma to get
1010 = 627 x 1 + 383
We consider the new divisor 627 and the new remainder 383,and apply the division lemma to get
627 = 383 x 1 + 244
We consider the new divisor 383 and the new remainder 244,and apply the division lemma to get
383 = 244 x 1 + 139
We consider the new divisor 244 and the new remainder 139,and apply the division lemma to get
244 = 139 x 1 + 105
We consider the new divisor 139 and the new remainder 105,and apply the division lemma to get
139 = 105 x 1 + 34
We consider the new divisor 105 and the new remainder 34,and apply the division lemma to get
105 = 34 x 3 + 3
We consider the new divisor 34 and the new remainder 3,and apply the division lemma to get
34 = 3 x 11 + 1
We consider the new divisor 3 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
3 = 1 x 3 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 4667 and 5677 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(3,1) = HCF(34,3) = HCF(105,34) = HCF(139,105) = HCF(244,139) = HCF(383,244) = HCF(627,383) = HCF(1010,627) = HCF(4667,1010) = HCF(5677,4667) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
