HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 483, 569, 117, 673 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 483, 569, 117, 673 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 483, 569, 117, 673 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 483, 569, 117, 673 is 1.
HCF(483, 569, 117, 673) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 483, 569, 117, 673 is 1.
Step 1: Since 569 > 483, we apply the division lemma to 569 and 483, to get
569 = 483 x 1 + 86
Step 2: Since the reminder 483 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 86 and 483, to get
483 = 86 x 5 + 53
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 86 and the new remainder 53, and apply the division lemma to get
86 = 53 x 1 + 33
We consider the new divisor 53 and the new remainder 33,and apply the division lemma to get
53 = 33 x 1 + 20
We consider the new divisor 33 and the new remainder 20,and apply the division lemma to get
33 = 20 x 1 + 13
We consider the new divisor 20 and the new remainder 13,and apply the division lemma to get
20 = 13 x 1 + 7
We consider the new divisor 13 and the new remainder 7,and apply the division lemma to get
13 = 7 x 1 + 6
We consider the new divisor 7 and the new remainder 6,and apply the division lemma to get
7 = 6 x 1 + 1
We consider the new divisor 6 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
6 = 1 x 6 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 483 and 569 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(6,1) = HCF(7,6) = HCF(13,7) = HCF(20,13) = HCF(33,20) = HCF(53,33) = HCF(86,53) = HCF(483,86) = HCF(569,483) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 117 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 117 and 1, to get
117 = 1 x 117 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 117 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(117,1) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 673 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 673 and 1, to get
673 = 1 x 673 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 673 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(673,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
