HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 912, 1033 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 912, 1033 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 912, 1033 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 912, 1033 is 1.
HCF(912, 1033) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 912, 1033 is 1.
Step 1: Since 1033 > 912, we apply the division lemma to 1033 and 912, to get
1033 = 912 x 1 + 121
Step 2: Since the reminder 912 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 121 and 912, to get
912 = 121 x 7 + 65
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 121 and the new remainder 65, and apply the division lemma to get
121 = 65 x 1 + 56
We consider the new divisor 65 and the new remainder 56,and apply the division lemma to get
65 = 56 x 1 + 9
We consider the new divisor 56 and the new remainder 9,and apply the division lemma to get
56 = 9 x 6 + 2
We consider the new divisor 9 and the new remainder 2,and apply the division lemma to get
9 = 2 x 4 + 1
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 912 and 1033 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(9,2) = HCF(56,9) = HCF(65,56) = HCF(121,65) = HCF(912,121) = HCF(1033,912) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
1. What is the Euclid division algorithm?
Answer: Euclid's Division Algorithm is a technique to compute the Highest Common Factor (HCF) of given positive integers.
2. what is the HCF of 912, 1033?
Answer: HCF of 912, 1033 is 1 the largest number that divides all the numbers leaving a remainder zero.
3. How to find HCF of 912, 1033 using Euclid's Algorithm?
Answer: For arbitrary numbers 912, 1033 apply Euclid’s Division Lemma in succession until you obtain a remainder zero. HCF is the remainder in the last but one step.
