HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 482, 827, 82, 195 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 482, 827, 82, 195 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 482, 827, 82, 195 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 482, 827, 82, 195 is 1.
HCF(482, 827, 82, 195) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 482, 827, 82, 195 is 1.
Step 1: Since 827 > 482, we apply the division lemma to 827 and 482, to get
827 = 482 x 1 + 345
Step 2: Since the reminder 482 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 345 and 482, to get
482 = 345 x 1 + 137
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 345 and the new remainder 137, and apply the division lemma to get
345 = 137 x 2 + 71
We consider the new divisor 137 and the new remainder 71,and apply the division lemma to get
137 = 71 x 1 + 66
We consider the new divisor 71 and the new remainder 66,and apply the division lemma to get
71 = 66 x 1 + 5
We consider the new divisor 66 and the new remainder 5,and apply the division lemma to get
66 = 5 x 13 + 1
We consider the new divisor 5 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
5 = 1 x 5 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 482 and 827 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(5,1) = HCF(66,5) = HCF(71,66) = HCF(137,71) = HCF(345,137) = HCF(482,345) = HCF(827,482) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 82 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 82 and 1, to get
82 = 1 x 82 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 82 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(82,1) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 195 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 195 and 1, to get
195 = 1 x 195 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 195 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(195,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
