HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 6747, 4081 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 6747, 4081 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 6747, 4081 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 6747, 4081 is 1.
HCF(6747, 4081) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 6747, 4081 is 1.
Step 1: Since 6747 > 4081, we apply the division lemma to 6747 and 4081, to get
6747 = 4081 x 1 + 2666
Step 2: Since the reminder 4081 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 2666 and 4081, to get
4081 = 2666 x 1 + 1415
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 2666 and the new remainder 1415, and apply the division lemma to get
2666 = 1415 x 1 + 1251
We consider the new divisor 1415 and the new remainder 1251,and apply the division lemma to get
1415 = 1251 x 1 + 164
We consider the new divisor 1251 and the new remainder 164,and apply the division lemma to get
1251 = 164 x 7 + 103
We consider the new divisor 164 and the new remainder 103,and apply the division lemma to get
164 = 103 x 1 + 61
We consider the new divisor 103 and the new remainder 61,and apply the division lemma to get
103 = 61 x 1 + 42
We consider the new divisor 61 and the new remainder 42,and apply the division lemma to get
61 = 42 x 1 + 19
We consider the new divisor 42 and the new remainder 19,and apply the division lemma to get
42 = 19 x 2 + 4
We consider the new divisor 19 and the new remainder 4,and apply the division lemma to get
19 = 4 x 4 + 3
We consider the new divisor 4 and the new remainder 3,and apply the division lemma to get
4 = 3 x 1 + 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 6747 and 4081 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(3,1) = HCF(4,3) = HCF(19,4) = HCF(42,19) = HCF(61,42) = HCF(103,61) = HCF(164,103) = HCF(1251,164) = HCF(1415,1251) = HCF(2666,1415) = HCF(4081,2666) = HCF(6747,4081) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
