HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 1009, 6007 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 1009, 6007 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 1009, 6007 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 1009, 6007 is 1.
HCF(1009, 6007) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 1009, 6007 is 1.
Step 1: Since 6007 > 1009, we apply the division lemma to 6007 and 1009, to get
6007 = 1009 x 5 + 962
Step 2: Since the reminder 1009 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 962 and 1009, to get
1009 = 962 x 1 + 47
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 962 and the new remainder 47, and apply the division lemma to get
962 = 47 x 20 + 22
We consider the new divisor 47 and the new remainder 22,and apply the division lemma to get
47 = 22 x 2 + 3
We consider the new divisor 22 and the new remainder 3,and apply the division lemma to get
22 = 3 x 7 + 1
We consider the new divisor 3 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
3 = 1 x 3 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1009 and 6007 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(3,1) = HCF(22,3) = HCF(47,22) = HCF(962,47) = HCF(1009,962) = HCF(6007,1009) .
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 1009, 6007?
Answer: HCF of 1009, 6007 is 1 the largest number that divides all the numbers leaving a remainder zero.
3. How to find HCF of 1009, 6007 using Euclid's Algorithm?
Answer: For arbitrary numbers 1009, 6007 apply Euclid’s Division Lemma in succession until you obtain a remainder zero. HCF is the remainder in the last but one step.
