HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 1107, 6388 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 1107, 6388 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 1107, 6388 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 1107, 6388 is 1.
HCF(1107, 6388) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 1107, 6388 is 1.
Step 1: Since 6388 > 1107, we apply the division lemma to 6388 and 1107, to get
6388 = 1107 x 5 + 853
Step 2: Since the reminder 1107 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 853 and 1107, to get
1107 = 853 x 1 + 254
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 853 and the new remainder 254, and apply the division lemma to get
853 = 254 x 3 + 91
We consider the new divisor 254 and the new remainder 91,and apply the division lemma to get
254 = 91 x 2 + 72
We consider the new divisor 91 and the new remainder 72,and apply the division lemma to get
91 = 72 x 1 + 19
We consider the new divisor 72 and the new remainder 19,and apply the division lemma to get
72 = 19 x 3 + 15
We consider the new divisor 19 and the new remainder 15,and apply the division lemma to get
19 = 15 x 1 + 4
We consider the new divisor 15 and the new remainder 4,and apply the division lemma to get
15 = 4 x 3 + 3
We consider the new divisor 4 and the new remainder 3,and apply the division lemma to get
4 = 3 x 1 + 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 1107 and 6388 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(3,1) = HCF(4,3) = HCF(15,4) = HCF(19,15) = HCF(72,19) = HCF(91,72) = HCF(254,91) = HCF(853,254) = HCF(1107,853) = HCF(6388,1107) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
