HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 690, 54613 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 690, 54613 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 690, 54613 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 690, 54613 is 1.
HCF(690, 54613) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 690, 54613 is 1.
Step 1: Since 54613 > 690, we apply the division lemma to 54613 and 690, to get
54613 = 690 x 79 + 103
Step 2: Since the reminder 690 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 103 and 690, to get
690 = 103 x 6 + 72
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 103 and the new remainder 72, and apply the division lemma to get
103 = 72 x 1 + 31
We consider the new divisor 72 and the new remainder 31,and apply the division lemma to get
72 = 31 x 2 + 10
We consider the new divisor 31 and the new remainder 10,and apply the division lemma to get
31 = 10 x 3 + 1
We consider the new divisor 10 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
10 = 1 x 10 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 690 and 54613 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(10,1) = HCF(31,10) = HCF(72,31) = HCF(103,72) = HCF(690,103) = HCF(54613,690) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
1. What is the Euclid division algorithm?
