Determining HCF of Numbers 1296,5040 by Euclid's Division Lemma

Below detailed show work will make you learn how to find HCF of 1296,5040 using the Euclidean division algorithm. So, follow the step by step explanation & check the answer for HCF(1296,5040).

Here 5040 is greater than 1296

Now, consider the largest number as 'a' from the given number ie., 5040 and 1296 satisfy Euclid's division lemma statement a = bq + r where 0 ≤ r < b

Step 1: Since 5040 > 1296, we apply the division lemma to 5040 and 1296, to get

5040 = 1296 x 3 + 1152

Step 2: Since the reminder 1296 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 1152 and 1296, to get

1296 = 1152 x 1 + 144

Step 3: We consider the new divisor 1152 and the new remainder 144, and apply the division lemma to get

1152 = 144 x 8 + 0

The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 144, the HCF of 1296 and 5040 is 144

Notice that 144 = HCF(1152,144) = HCF(1296,1152) = HCF(5040,1296) .

Therefore, HCF of 1296,5040 using Euclid's division lemma is 144.
