HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 7623, 7093, 24567 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 7623, 7093, 24567 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 7623, 7093, 24567 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 7623, 7093, 24567 is 1.
HCF(7623, 7093, 24567) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 7623, 7093, 24567 is 1.
Step 1: Since 7623 > 7093, we apply the division lemma to 7623 and 7093, to get
7623 = 7093 x 1 + 530
Step 2: Since the reminder 7093 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 530 and 7093, to get
7093 = 530 x 13 + 203
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 530 and the new remainder 203, and apply the division lemma to get
530 = 203 x 2 + 124
We consider the new divisor 203 and the new remainder 124,and apply the division lemma to get
203 = 124 x 1 + 79
We consider the new divisor 124 and the new remainder 79,and apply the division lemma to get
124 = 79 x 1 + 45
We consider the new divisor 79 and the new remainder 45,and apply the division lemma to get
79 = 45 x 1 + 34
We consider the new divisor 45 and the new remainder 34,and apply the division lemma to get
45 = 34 x 1 + 11
We consider the new divisor 34 and the new remainder 11,and apply the division lemma to get
34 = 11 x 3 + 1
We consider the new divisor 11 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
11 = 1 x 11 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 7623 and 7093 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(11,1) = HCF(34,11) = HCF(45,34) = HCF(79,45) = HCF(124,79) = HCF(203,124) = HCF(530,203) = HCF(7093,530) = HCF(7623,7093) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 24567 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 24567 and 1, to get
24567 = 1 x 24567 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 24567 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(24567,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
