HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 4698, 6075 i.e. 81 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 4698, 6075 is 81 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 4698, 6075 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 4698, 6075 is 81.
HCF(4698, 6075) = 81
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 4698, 6075 is 81.
Step 1: Since 6075 > 4698, we apply the division lemma to 6075 and 4698, to get
6075 = 4698 x 1 + 1377
Step 2: Since the reminder 4698 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 1377 and 4698, to get
4698 = 1377 x 3 + 567
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 1377 and the new remainder 567, and apply the division lemma to get
1377 = 567 x 2 + 243
We consider the new divisor 567 and the new remainder 243,and apply the division lemma to get
567 = 243 x 2 + 81
We consider the new divisor 243 and the new remainder 81,and apply the division lemma to get
243 = 81 x 3 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 81, the HCF of 4698 and 6075 is 81
Notice that 81 = HCF(243,81) = HCF(567,243) = HCF(1377,567) = HCF(4698,1377) = HCF(6075,4698) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
1. What is the Euclid division algorithm?
