HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 630, 24937 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 630, 24937 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 630, 24937 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 630, 24937 is 1.
HCF(630, 24937) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 630, 24937 is 1.
Step 1: Since 24937 > 630, we apply the division lemma to 24937 and 630, to get
24937 = 630 x 39 + 367
Step 2: Since the reminder 630 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 367 and 630, to get
630 = 367 x 1 + 263
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 367 and the new remainder 263, and apply the division lemma to get
367 = 263 x 1 + 104
We consider the new divisor 263 and the new remainder 104,and apply the division lemma to get
263 = 104 x 2 + 55
We consider the new divisor 104 and the new remainder 55,and apply the division lemma to get
104 = 55 x 1 + 49
We consider the new divisor 55 and the new remainder 49,and apply the division lemma to get
55 = 49 x 1 + 6
We consider the new divisor 49 and the new remainder 6,and apply the division lemma to get
49 = 6 x 8 + 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 630 and 24937 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(6,1) = HCF(49,6) = HCF(55,49) = HCF(104,55) = HCF(263,104) = HCF(367,263) = HCF(630,367) = HCF(24937,630) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
1. What is the Euclid division algorithm?
