HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 882, 4833, 9011 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 882, 4833, 9011 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 882, 4833, 9011 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 882, 4833, 9011 is 1.
HCF(882, 4833, 9011) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 882, 4833, 9011 is 1.
Step 1: Since 4833 > 882, we apply the division lemma to 4833 and 882, to get
4833 = 882 x 5 + 423
Step 2: Since the reminder 882 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 423 and 882, to get
882 = 423 x 2 + 36
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 423 and the new remainder 36, and apply the division lemma to get
423 = 36 x 11 + 27
We consider the new divisor 36 and the new remainder 27,and apply the division lemma to get
36 = 27 x 1 + 9
We consider the new divisor 27 and the new remainder 9,and apply the division lemma to get
27 = 9 x 3 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 9, the HCF of 882 and 4833 is 9
Notice that 9 = HCF(27,9) = HCF(36,27) = HCF(423,36) = HCF(882,423) = HCF(4833,882) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 9011 > 9, we apply the division lemma to 9011 and 9, to get
9011 = 9 x 1001 + 2
Step 2: Since the reminder 9 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 2 and 9, to get
9 = 2 x 4 + 1
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 2 and the new remainder 1, and apply the division lemma to get
2 = 1 x 2 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 9 and 9011 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(9,2) = HCF(9011,9) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.

2. what is the HCF of 882, 4833, 9011?
Answer: HCF of 882, 4833, 9011 is 1 the largest number that divides all the numbers leaving a remainder zero.
3. How to find HCF of 882, 4833, 9011 using Euclid's Algorithm?
Answer: For arbitrary numbers 882, 4833, 9011 apply Euclid’s Division Lemma in succession until you obtain a remainder zero. HCF is the remainder in the last but one step.
